Ethical resilience is often listed as one of the top attributes of high performing internal auditors and audit leaders in organizations around the world. To earn and sustain trust in the organizations they serve, internal auditors must not only conform to the profession’s code of ethics, but they must also bring a strong moral compass to their role every day. Internal auditors must know and guard against “blind spots” – a temporary inability to see the ethical aspect of behavior or a decision that is being made. This session will explore how to identify and navigate blind spots and other challenges and opportunities awaiting internal auditors as they model ethical behavior and integrity in the organizations they serve.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the concept of ethical behavior by audit professionals.
- Grasp the inextricable link between culture and ethical behavior.
- Identify blind spots that often compromise the ethical behavior of internal auditors.
- Discover barriers to ethical behavior and the courage needed to overcome them.
