Should auditors be aware of emotional issues?

Should auditors be aware of emotional issues?

Facts don't care about your feelings.

Unfortunately feelings control many decisions in business environments. I worked with one woman who was overworked, underpaid and completely burned out.

Each year, she asked her boss for additional funding to hire more staff. Each year, her boss denied her request.

Why?

It finally came out that her boss simply did not like her. So she worked for years in an compromised control environment because of her boss' personal problem.

After she left, the money magically appeared to clean up the department.

Are auditors aware of emotional issues that impact the organization?

Should you be?

Let's talk about this on the next episode of Audit Bites.
