Digitalization will change and disrupt every element of the value chain. It will also completely transform the internal audit function. This will fundamentally change what we audit and how we audit.

How Martin is building a better working world

“In my daily interactions with clients, I help them develop their version of the digital internal audit function. I inspire clients with alternate views on the application of tools, enablers and methodologies. By thinking about audits in a new light they can increase the value they provide to their organization. There is only one question every Chief Audit Executive has to ask every day. ‘How can I make my function more relevant to my key stakeholders?’ With my help they find better answers to this question.”
