Serious gaming for serious professionals
Using many talents for solving strategic business issues
Conducting internal audits solely based on professional expertise doesn't suffice anymore; many internal auditors are
convinced that such a detached, purely expert-driven business function, ruled by handbook views on organisations
simply doesn't deliver enough value in today’s large, complex organisations.
Nowadays, rather, audit client centricity is crucial to successful internal audit departments. To optimally contribute to
the organisation’s structure and strategy, Internal Audit departments need to connect and communicate with other de-
partments in a consistent manner without losing sight of their unique expertise. However, balancing a dominant inter-
nal audit approach and managerial issues in the organisational life, proves to be difficult. Internal Audit is, after all, by
definition a technical specialist field.
Since no professional can do everything - nor should he or she try to - it is time to redefine the way we look at Internal
Auditteams and make optimal use of everyone’s unique talents and how we let them work together.
Specific teams for specific assignments
In order to optimally integrate Internal Auditing into its context, in every kind of organisation, internal audit profession-
als need to be aware of their own unique skills, talents and ways of contributing and how these interact with those of
their colleagues and clients.
The necessary relationships between client and audit professionals that build real value need to be forged on a per-
sonal level, a group /team level as well as on internal audit departmental and company level. This client centric view
and respective effective communications are based on;
1. the understanding of one’s own and each others' unique talents and ways of contributing to the organisa-
tion’s strategy in a complex environment,
2. one’s own and each other’s responsibilities in this business environment,
3. understanding the day-to-day dynamics in managing complex organisations,
4. recognition of the various stakeholders interests and especially on
5. understanding the managers' mind-set on issues and dilemma’s.
In order to achieve this we teach individuals, teams, departments and their supervisors how to make optimal use of
their unique skills and talents and create the best possible teams, which can contribute to the organisation’s strategy
without losing sight of their specialist-driven expertise in a consistent manner.
