Synopsis

In the years since the first edition was published, Richard Chambers has shared numerous new lessons across various content media—presentations, social media, and more than 200 blogs and articles. The “speed of risk” has been a recurring theme in the messages he has delivered to the profession since 2014, and it is a theme that is prominent in this updated edition. He offers fresh perspectives on key developments from recent years that have critical implications for the profession. His hope is that readers will find his journey worthwhile and learn how to harness their own personal passion for the internal audit profession.

The author addresses topics of concern to the profession today, including:

The rising expectations of internal audit’s stakeholders
The imperative to audit at the speed of risk
How internal audit must leverage innovation in the face of disruption
Internal audit’s role in auditing culture, artificial intelligence, and new technologies
The idea that internal auditors can audit anything—but not everything
The skills future trailblazers will need in internal audit
