    Papayo is a Peruvian puppy who enters each day with excitement as he conquers many adventures with which he is faced. From exploring the Andes Mountains along the Inca Trail, to daily chores on his small village farm; readers get a glimpse into the lives of the free-roaming dogs in South America! Papayo is a real puppy living outside of Cusco, and I had the pleasure of meeting him during my travels to Peru. My own heart felt compelled to share this story since Papayo reminded me so much of my own puppy, Felix, back home in Charlotte, North Carolina. Yet, they lived completely different lives.

    The Modern Dating Game: Finding the Perfect Match for your Benefits Program. In this session, the speakers will demonstrate how to better navigate the often-awkward process of vendor selection in this new age of technology and innovation. Employers have long relied on impersonal methods (RFPs) to vet vendors that are cumbersome and outdated. Vendors with innovative new products, by definition, have not been selling their solutions very long. These factors lead to a dance that looks like middle schoolers trying not to step on each other’s feet. As veterans of both the traditional benefits world and start-ups, we’ll share how-to-buy insights and show you new ways to feel confident every time you “swipe right” on a new solution.
