Upleveling the Practice of Internal Audit and SOX Compliance
Join 1K+ readers of The Enabling Positive Change Newsletter for tips, strategies, and resources to improve your approach to Internal Audit and SOX compliance.
I’m Tom O'Reilly, and my mission, and passion, is simple:
to help Internal Auditors and SOX practitioners like you succeed.
Internal Auditing is hard work.
Forming opinions on how risks are managed, without deep experience of the process audited, in a short period of time, is not easy to do.
Establishing relationships with business executives, who may perceive Internal Auditors as fault-finders, requires sustained effort and time to overcome.
Leaning in to help partner, collaborate, and innovate, but also remaining objective and independent, is a delicate balancing act.
Great Internal Auditors find a way.
They learn how to operate in the gray, providing assurance while also collaborating and helping.
They see themselves more as coaches than as a policing function.
They work with the spirit of enthusiasm, with the knowledge that better controls and better managed risks means better business performance.
And to find a way, Great Internal Auditors understand that leading from the front of their organization requires gaining new skills, leveraging external perspectives, and continuously improving their approach to their craft.
To enable positive change in their organization, team, and career.
Whether you’re leading a department now, aspiring to in the future, or just starting your career, the Internal Audit Collective is here to support your journey.
