The pandemic has forced internal audit to change many of its “tried and true” approaches to getting its work done. Internal audit is at a major inflection point in its history, and how you manage yourself through the pandemic will determine your ability to be a trusted advisor, to add value, and remain relevant in the future.

This webinar will help you assess your relevance now, prioritize what to do to remain relevant, and determine action steps to take right now.

Join Hal Garyn and Jason Mefford who will discuss practical steps you can take now to remain relevant in your organization.

Don't risk having your internal audit function get downgraded, outsourced, or viewed as just another compliance function.

Learning Objectives:

- Understand the linkages between relevance and adding value
- Understand how the pandemic may have affected internal audit’s relevance
- Explore things internal audit must consider doing now to remain relevant
- Obtain insights on what to prioritize, what will matter, and what will make a difference

EVERYONE WHO REGISTERS FOR THIS EVENT WILL GET ACCESS TO RESOURCES TO HELP YOU START PUTTING THESE CONCEPTS INTO PRACTICE THIS WEEK.
