Auditors no longer spend all of their time preparing detailed reports on low-level problems for junior operational managers; instead they focus on the high-level risks to organizations and present their findings to executive boards and audit committees. They are expected to work with and alongside busy managers to enable them to identify and manage risks to their organizations, while retaining a degree of independence so as to ensure the professional scepticism so essential to the audit role. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreviously published as \u003ci\u003eThe Essential Handbook of Internal Auditing\u003c\/i\u003e, this book has been completely revised to comply with the Institute of Internal Auditor's (IIA) International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing, released during 2009.
