Episode 13: Internal Audit Lens - Plain language and accessible communications

No one likes writing audit reports and no one likes reading audit reports, but there are ways to reduce the pain and increase the gain. In this episode, Annabel Faulkner of EY and Sara I James of Getting Words to Work discuss how understanding and using plain language will increase the effectiveness of your report and reduce the risk of misunderstanding.
