What happens when an internal audit team dares to move beyond compliance checkboxes and into the heart of business risk?

Over the past five years, Casey’s Internal Audit function has done exactly that, shedding a narrow SOX-first mindset to embrace a bold, risk-based approach that’s more responsive, tech-enabled, and business-aligned. Through strategic use of continuous auditing, process maturation, and a laser focus on value creation, the team has delivered over $8 million in recoveries, while strengthening enterprise accountability and decision-making.

Join us as Mr. Jon Taber, Internal Audit manager at Casey’s, unpacks their transformation journey, and equips attendees with the tools and mindset to do the same.

Learning Objectives:

1. Discover how to pivot from a compliance-heavy approach to a strategic, risk-based audit model that resonates with executive leadership.
2. Explore practical ways to integrate continuous auditing and agile methodologies to boost audit efficiency, relevance, and impact.
3. Gain actionable insights on driving measurable value, from cost recoveries to enhanced accountability, across the organization.
