Finance / Management

Communication skills have long been recognised as essential to professional success and many a career has stalled, faltered or stagnated thanks to a lack of communication skills. Contrary to urban myth, few of us are born with this skill, instead most have either practised or learned from mistakes. This course is designed to assist delegates to improve their communication skills and in consequence their ability to work with others.

Mediation skills are subtly yet meaningfully different. Excellent communication is a pre-requisite but more important is the ability to listen and take note of what is being said. The role of the mediator is to help parties reach a solution to their problem and to arrive at an outcome that both parties are happy to accept. Mediators avoid taking sides, making judgements or giving guidance. They are simply responsible for developing effective communications and building consensus between the parties. This course also covers the wider range of skills, in addition to communication, that are required to be an effective mediator.

The primary objective of this programme is to shift the audit function from a reactive 'finding' exercise to a proactive 'prevention' strategy. By mastering Root Cause Analysis, the Internal Audit team can specifically target the elimination of recurring findings. This ensures that once a weakness is identified, the resulting recommendation provides a permanent solution, thereby safeguarding the organisation's operational efficiency and financial integrity.

Opting not to implement structured RCA creates a high-risk environment:

• Financial Erosion: Unresolved root causes within financial processes lead to cumulative leakages that escalate over time.
• Resource Wastage: Auditors spend 40% more time re-auditing the same failed controls rather than focusing on new strategic risks.
• Diminished Authority: Repeatedly reporting the same issues weakens the Audit Division's influence with senior management and auditees.

Course Objectives:

• This is a one-day program designed so that, upon completion, participants will be able to:
  • Define risk, its origins, and its impact on business operations, demonstrating an enhanced awareness of the topic.
