Ready, Set, Grow: Building a Future-Ready Workforce

Description

As audit departments face rapidly evolving risks, such as cybersecurity threats, tax complexities, and new regulations, it’s crucial to develop a future-ready workforce. This session will focus on how to assess the current skill set of your team, identify gaps, and develop a strategy for upskilling to meet emerging challenges. Learn how to cascade critical knowledge from specialized areas, like cyber and tax, to ensure your entire team is equipped to handle diverse audit needs. Discover how to create a comprehensive succession plan that builds leadership pipelines, develops managers to push beyond their comfort zones, and prepares your team to take on more strategic roles. Attendees will explore ways to push individuals outside their comfort zones, develop resilience, and create a culture of continuous learning that drives audit innovation and readiness.
