Professional Ethics - Navigating the Shades of Grey

Session Overview:

The challenges of the Chief Audit Executive are many in relation to working for and supporting an organisation to achieve its goals, whilst applying a lens of professional skepticism over organisational activities and providing independent feedback and recommendations.

The day to day work of CAEs and assurance professionals of applying organizational governance frameworks, charters, policies and regulation requirements against business realities can sometimes put the CAE in the middle of a difficult ethical dilemma. Key points that will be discussed include:

What I will learn:

• Understanding organisational landscape and your role as an internal auditor
• Insights of what it is like to be CAE when the theory does not match the reality
• Identifying how and when you escalate an unethical situation
• How to crash through barriers - Getting the message across when no-one is listening
• Defining your personal ethics vs. organisational ethics - When is it time to resign?
