Ethics in Internal Auditing (Ethik in der Internen Revision)

Allgemein - Grundstufe

Beschreibung

Navigate real-world ethical dilemmas in internal auditing

Ethical challenges in internal auditing are rarely black and white. This seminar explores the real-world complexity of ethical decision-making and the importance of professional courage in maintaining integrity under pressure.

Rooted in Domain II of the 2024 Global Internal Audit Standards (Ethics and Professionalism), the session examines how personal values, group dynamics, and organizational culture influence ethical behavior. Participants will reflect on dilemmas faced by auditors, including whistleblowing, KPI conflicts, and the subtle pressures to “fit in” at the cost of speaking up.

Through case studies, discussions, and practical examples, participants will develop tools to recognize ethical red flags, challenge unethical behavior constructively, and uphold their professional responsibilities with confidence.
