Beschreibung

Ask the Right Questions. Challenge Assumptions. Strengthen Audit Credibility.

Critical thinking is a core capability that distinguishes high-impact internal auditors. This interactive seminar enhances your ability to think independently, ask insightful questions, and navigate complexity with confidence.

Rooted in the 2024 Global Internal Audit Standards (GIAS), the session emphasizes principles such as professional skepticism and professional courage. Participants will explore how to overcome conformity pressures, challenge groupthink, and deal constructively with sensitive or ambiguous findings.

Cultural, organizational, and psychological factors influencing both auditors and auditees will also be examined. Through practical exercises and real-life case studies, participants will learn how to move beyond technical execution to strategic, value-added auditing.
