Report Writing: Getting the Message Across
Well-written audit reports can be the difference between an audit group that is perceived as adding value and one that merely exists. Unfortunately, delivering audit reports that contain objective-driven, direct, concise, evidence-backed information continues to be a challenge for even the most seasoned internal auditors. Audit reports often fail to deliver the intended message for a multitude of reasons, including their length, lack of a clear objective, overabundance of audit lingo and terminology, buried or lost messages, and not understanding the needs of audience
Learning Objectives:
- Understanding audience needs
