Internal Audit Strategy Development

Forward-Thinking Internal Audit Strategies | How can you actively shape the future of your internal audit function?

The landscape of internal audit is undergoing a fundamental shift. With the introduction of the 2025 Global Internal Audit Standards by IIA Global, internal audit leaders must take a strategic approach to structuring their functions. The new Domain IV: Managing the Internal Audit Function and Principle 9: Plan Strategically emphasize the critical importance of long-term strategic planning. The 20th anniversary of the Audit Challenge Conference Series is the perfect platform for Chief Audit Executives and internal audit professionals to gain cutting-edge insights into how to develop and implement a robust, future-ready internal audit strategy.

These presentations focus on the key elements of strategic planning for internal audit functions, with special emphasis on Standard 9.2: Internal Audit Strategy. Top experts and Chief Audit Executives will share their best practices and real-world applications for designing a sustainable audit strategy, considering:

++ Human Resources: Optimizing talent management and skill development to meet the future demands of internal auditing.

++ Organizational Resources: Strengthening process architecture and audit methodologies to enhance efficiency and effectiveness.

++ Physical Resources: Leveraging IT tools and innovative workplace concepts to drive digital transformation in audit operations.

One of the critical aspects of a modern internal audit strategy is fostering collaboration with other risk-oriented departments within the organization. The concept of Combined Assurance ensures that internal audit aligns seamlessly with the Second Line of Defense, creating a holistic approach to risk management. Our distinguished speakers showcase how leading organizations have successfully integrated this framework into their strategic planning.

Throughout the conference days, experienced Chief Audit Executives present real-world case studies on how they have structured and executed their internal audit strategies. These practical insights will be complemented by in-depth presentations from audit methodology specialists, offering attendees a comprehensive perspective on the latest trends and innovations in internal audit planning.
