This year's event theme,''Mastering Execution to Maximize Growth and Profit'', will examine how grocers are adapting to a fundamental shift in shopping behavior and reacting to the opportunity that the current economy can create for the industry. Executives will learn the importance of flawless execution and the need to continue to pursue innovation at a time when cost cutting is paramount.

His session, titled ''Driving Workforce Performance through Superior Execution Management'' will nurture discussion among senior-level grocery executives as they explore the impact of superior execution management on business performance.
"As grocery executives prepare to meet the big challenges ahead in the second half of the year, the RIS Supermarket Executive Summit is ideally suited to provide them with fresh ideas they can take home and immediately use within their organizations," says Joe Skorupa, group editor-in-chief of RIS News. "The leadership workshop Scott Knaul is leading, which is about the key topic of driving workforce performance through superior execution, is going to be an information-rich session built on Knaul's many years of retail experience. It is designed to enable grocers to hit the ground running instead of flat footed when the economy turns around."

''As a former retail executive, my respect runs deep for the people at RIS and their commitment to providing timely content, and superior events that nurture collaboration and best practice sharing among peers.''
