In the years since the first edition was published, Richard Chambers has shared numerous new lessons across various content media—presentations, social media, and more than 200 blogs and articles. The “speed of risk” has been a recurring theme in the messages he has delivered to the profession since 2014, and it is a theme that is prominent in this updated edition. He offers fresh perspectives on key developments from recent years that have critical implications for the profession. His hope is that readers will find his journey worthwhile and learn how to harness their own personal passion for the internal audit profession.

The author addresses topics of concern to the profession today, including:

  • The rising expectations of internal audit’s stakeholders
  • The imperative to audit at the speed of risk
  • How internal audit must leverage innovation in the face of disruption
  • Internal audit’s role in auditing culture, artificial intelligence, and new technologies
  • The idea that internal auditors can audit anything—but not everything
  • The skills future trailblazers will need in internal audit

Auditing IT Change Management

IT change management refers to the process in which an organization’s technology changes; the effects that the changes have on systems, programs, or applications; and how the changes are managed. Change management in the IT environment is critical for organizational success. Organizations are bombarded with change requests — not only to improve or update existing application functionality, but also to implement necessary patches to help secure those applications; and in some cases, to comply with relevant regulatory requirements. Managing the flow of requests should be handled efficiently and effectively to avoid mishaps, rework, unintended consequences, or even system failure.

This course delivers an introduction to governance, risks, and controls associated with IT change management; how to assess the operational efficiency of processes involving change management; and how to provide assurance over IT change management. Participants will discover tools that will help them to obtain and evaluate evidence of accurate change management assertions, and foster an environment for organizational success.
