Audit Leader Forum™ Basic Quarterly
Quarterly, candid, confidential and respectful discussions with other Audit Leaders, in a safe space.
The Audit Leader Forum™ is a membership program specifically for audit leaders, providing a community where they can discuss challenges, get advice, and network with other internal audit leaders. Members benefit from confidential peer-to-peer support, coaching and mentoring from experienced audit leaders and coaches.
The program emphasizes the importance of thinking strategically, building executive presence and leadership skills beyond technical expertise, as these are crucial for success in the demanding role of an audit leader.
You don't have to remain on the audit leadership island all alone!
Access tools, resources, mentorship, and peer networking to increase your executive presence, communication and relationship skills, so you avoid political landmines and add real value to your organization without the usual stress and burnout often associated with the role of an audit leader. Learn how to customize your internal audit function to match the context and culture of your organization so you are seen as a valuable part of the executive team.
And, we've been serving audit leaders just like you since 2018.
