From the GAM Conference: Changing Priorities, Analytics in Auditing and More

This week, Protiviti is joining the best and brightest thought leaders from Fortune 500 companies at The Institute of Internal Auditors’ 2017 General Audit Management (GAM) Conference in Orlando, FL. For nearly 40 years, GAM has been the premier experience for internal audit leaders to explore emerging issues and exchange leading practices for positive outcomes. The theme for the 2017 conference is Fostering Risk Resilience. Two Protiviti leaders, Brian Christensen and Jordan Reed, will be conducting panel discussions on stakeholder expectations and the Internet of Things, respectively. We are covering these events and more from the conference here on our blog and on Protiviti’s social media platforms.
