Seminar Details

Do you often find yourself auditing bits and pieces of the organization without really getting to the meat of things? At an executive level, when setting strategy, providing assurance to management that enterprise risk, compliance activities, operational risks and monitoring activities are strategically designed and tactically implemented effectively are keys to sound corporate governance.

Join us for a lively discussion on what Corporate Governance entails and what tactics and approaches your internal audit department should be using to provide management assurance and consulting that their systems operate effectively and efficiently.
