Cutting edge internal auditing
 

Jeffrey Ridley
 

Cutting Edge Internal Auditing provides guidance and knowledge for every internal auditor, encouraging each to pioneer new ground in the development of their professional practices in all risk management, control and governance processes.
 

Serving as an excellent reference guide that develops a pattern of internal auditing now and for the future, this book explores the concept of 'cutting edge' internal auditing as an imaginative adventure: demonstrating how this has influenced and will continue to influence the development of professionalism in internal auditing.
 

Built on the foundations of Jeffrey Ridley's extensive internal auditing experience across the public and private sectors, the author uses his articles and research to explore and develop the motivations, goals and categories of innovation in internal auditing today. It develops and brings up to date an imaginative internal auditing model, created and used by the author in the early 1980s, drawing on research and guidance by The Institute of Internal Auditors Inc., its Research Foundation and the Institute of Internal Auditors - UK and Ireland.
 

Each chapter stands alone by focusing on an individual internal auditing theme, considered from both the perspective of internal auditing and its customers to suggest an appropriate vision as a goal for every internal audit activity. Each chapter also includes self-assessment questions to challenge the readers understanding of its messages.
 

Accompanied by a CD ROM containing some of the author's training slides and seventy case studies, many written by leading internal audit practitioners, this book creates a vision for future cutting edge internal auditing.

Cutting edge internal auditing
 

"Professor Jeffery Ridley has prepared a well-researched resource to help auditors perform and excel. Internal auditing is now seen as a major force that is endorsed by regulatory agencies world-wide. There is, though, a clear gap between doing good audit work and providing a cutting edge audit service â?" which is where this excellent new book comes into its own; in stimulating the imaginative thinking needed to close this gap."
 
-K. H. Spencer-Pickett, National School of Government, London
 

"Professor Ridley has provided a comprehensive survey of the characteristics, dynamics and processes of setting 'cutting edge' standards, and an examination of the contributions of internal auditing research in solving problems in this context. The orientation he has outlined is not institutional, but rather an attempt to increase the understanding of the internal auditing processes and its special characteristics from a global perspective."
 
-Ronald Lackland CIA, CCSA, CGAP, CFE, MIRM; Acting Head of the Centre for Internal Audit, Risk and Governance; Birmingham City University Business School
 

"Professor Jeffrey Ridley's Cutting Edge Internal Auditing offers a wealth of new knowledge and thinking as well as timeless and insightful advice that will enhance the internal audit effort. Practitioners and members of academe will find this well-researched book to be global, authoritative, comprehensive, and an indispensable reference that should grace the bookshelf of every internal auditor."
 
-Lal Balkaran, MBA, FCMA, FCIS, CIA, CGA, past President of IIA-Toronto
