transforming audit for the future

“the only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.” – peter drucker

a big challenge for firms has always been change management. we’re all used to doing our work the way we’ve done it for years. many auditors learned to audit by looking at last year’s workpapers and repeating that approach, but with this year’s numbers. so when i tell groups of auditors that the way we’ve been auditing since the dawn of time will have to change, there’s pushback.
