Course description
Corporate governance and culture are cornerstones to a strong internal control environment but auditing them requires a firm understanding of the principles and practices that underpin entities with strong governance. What happens when you have the makings of a solid foundation such as policies, procedures, monitoring processes and people in the key roles for all three lines of defense, but politics, culture, product “speed to market”, and/or fraud undermines the control structure? This course discusses a fictional company with a known culture issue. None of the traditional methods for finding control weaknesses have identified any areas of concern, yet everyone knows there is a problem. We will explore practical application of governance practices and identify steps the auditors could take to find the risk exposure.
