Auditors can bring added value in different areas to the organisation. But when the culture of integrity does not fit, the auditors create an additional risk to the organisation.

It is important to have the right team of external auditor onsite and integrity is also key in the team of external auditors.

It is the boards duty to ensure the quality of the external auditors.

KEY MESSAGES

The biggest mistakes happen in the planning of the audit which includes the process of identifying the right expertise of the team.

Without “understanding client’s business” the engagement is at risk from the perspective of the Board of Directors and the organisation.

Looking at recent cases like Wirecard for example rise the question how the risk mapping and planning of the audits were conducted and how deep the understanding of the clients’ business was.

The Human Factor

Let us dive into the world of corporate integrity, ethical leadership, and its success factors. Without being sensitised, we quickly find ourselves surrounded by different patterns of white-collar crime, non-compliance, and cyber-crime. Compressed knowledge in easily digestible doses to protect your company, your employees, your customers, and yourself - as a business leader or entrepreneur. Are you a decision-maker? A game changer towards corporate integrity and ethical leadership? The podcast The Human Factor - Corporate Integrity Matters is an extract of the three decades of experience earned by Sonja Stirnimann, a certified public accountant with an international Executive MBA in Financial Services and Insurance, a Certified Fraud Examiner, a business mediator, and executive coach. As a globally active entrepreneur, founder of Structuuland Corporate Integrity Concepts™, independent board member of various organisations and expert in her field, she knows the challenges. Sonja shares her knowledge because she is convinced that raising awareness is the most effective preventive measure to protect individuals and organisations asset and reputation. No matter whether we talk about accounting scandals, insider trading, Ponzi schemes, investment fraud, compliance breaches, tax evasion, data theft, extortion, allegations of corruption and bribery, cyber-attacks, or a combination thereof. They all have in common that the successful implementation of the organisation’s strategy, the asset and reputation protection as well as the ability to act in crises is put at risk. Let yourself be inspired by insights, interviews, and use cases in corporate integrity with its various factors impacting human behaviour.
