Ep 270: How to Have Real Conversations as an Audit Leader w/ Jason Mefford

This week on The Audit Podcast, we're joined by returning guest Jason Mefford, audit leader advisor and founder of the Audit Leader Forum.

Jason shares what it really means to have "real" conversations as an internal audit leader—and why authenticity, not ego, matters most. We talk through the situations where tough conversations come up most often, including with the board, the C-suite, executives, and staff.

He also breaks down practical advice for navigating difficult discussions and introduces the five areas of leadership audit leaders need to focus on as they move into senior roles.

Also, be sure to follow us on our social media accounts on LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok.
