Description:

You've probably heard of Agile, but what is it, actually? It's an essential mindset and set of methods that equip Internal Auditors to protect their enterprise in an environment of rapidly emerging new technologies and new threats. This session will clarify fundamental Agile concepts, dispel common misconceptions, and give participants several proven techniques they can begin using immediately to begin delivering impactful audits with greater business value.

 

Learning Objectives: By the end of the session, attendees will be able to:

• Explain the four core values of the Agile mindset and use them to guide decisions about how their Internal Audit function could deliver greater business value
• Relate Agile concepts to delivering strategic value through Internal Audit
• Formulate answers to the three core questions in a project canvas, a tool designed to foster greater focus on business value
• Implement elements of core agile concepts, including servant leadership and planning work around self-organizing teams
• Identify symptoms of “bad Agile” and how to avoid it.
