How to build trust, maintain relationships and manage conflicts in challenging times

Objective:

An important goal of audit is to actively participate in the improvement of risk management, internal controls and governance within an organization. That can’t be done in isolation as auditors detect and recommend correction leaving the work of implementation largely with the audit client.

In the days of leaner management approaches, adversarial, checklist relationships between auditors and audit clients can no longer bring the value to organizations they may have in the past. The increasing pace of business requires partnerships and collaboration to keep up with the changing business environment.

This seminar is designed to support audit professionals with approaches and skills to build relationship and partnership throughout various audit tasks and interaction with audit clients.

Topics:

  • Assessing your trust relationship with audit clients
  • Transactional trust & approaches to increasing competence and credibility
  • Relational trust & approaches to building caring and connection
  • Cultural challenges and trust building
  • Communication skills for building trust
  • Audit worse case scenarios
  • Building consensus with audit clients
  • Managing negative behaviors with respect
  • Influencing skills for auditors
