Description

Two of the most important requirements under current auditing standards are (1) engagement team brainstorming and (2) expanded inquiries of auditee personnel.  The skill with which these important requirements are carried out can mean the difference between discovering material fraud and … a lawsuit.  This session will address the following:
• Why brainstorming is important
• Rules for effective brainstorming
• The brainstorming documentation dilemma
• Successful interviewing: what to do and what not to do
• How to spot signs of deceptive behavior
