Subject: RILA Loss Prevention Community Update
Dear Loss Prevention Steering Committee members,
I look forward to seeing each of you at the conference later this week. This event is the culmination of your many months of dedication and hard work, and I look forward to enjoying the fruits of your labor with the record number of attendees who will be joining us in Orlando.
In the spirit of dedication and hard work, I would like to publically thank Paul Jones for his tremendous efforts, not only in driving this year’s Loss Prevention Conference, but in growing RILA’s overall loss prevention offerings in size, stature and strength. With Paul’s leadership, RILA has added several new members, increased the participation of our existing members, and expanded RILA’s influence and value in the LP community. His dedication and expertise has produced many tangible results and proven a great asset to the organization.
It is with this thought I share that Paul will be leaving RILA, effective May 7, to pursue another great opportunity. We are fortunate to have had Paul’s talent and expertise here at RILA and are dedicated to continuing the growth and level of excellence in our LP offerings that he achieved during his tenure at RILA. We are organizing a transition plan to ensure the continued quality of service our members expect of RILA in the LP area, at present and throughout the RILA-NRF merger process.
Our best wishes from RILA to Paul in his next endeavor. I look forward to speaking with you at the conference and am happy to discuss any questions you may have about the transition and merger processes. In the meantime, please feel free to contact me on my cell phone (202-657-8660) if you would like to discuss.
Thank you again for all of your efforts in putting together this year’s outstanding program and safe travels to Orlando.
Kind regards,
Casey Chroust
Senior Vice President, Retail Operations
