Trust. Transformation. Summary | August 2021 1 Conference overview Overview Audit firm culture is a critical component of an audit firm’s ability to deliver high quality audits in the public interest. One key attribute of a good, healthy audit culture is auditors being able to challenge effectively and exercise professional scepticism when performing audits. The need for a culture of scepticism and challenge in the audit profession was also highlighted by Sir Donald Brydon in his Review of the Quality and Effectiveness of Audit. In the week of 21 June 2021, the FRC hosted a series of virtual sessions to engage with a wide range of stakeholders in exploring the overall theme of creating a culture of challenge within audit firms to restore trust in the profession as part of the wider transformation journey. More than 1,500 participants attended the conference – a mix of audit professionals, audit committee chairs, directors, academics, culture experts, international regulators and other stakeholders. The conference focused on the following themes in five individual sessions: • Building an audit firm culture that supports high quality audit • The role of the audit committee • The importance of a culture of challenge • Embedding and measuring organisational culture • Audit firm culture, audit quality and the role of the regulator This document summarises some of the themes that were discussed at the conference.

Have You Seen Our Latest Reports, Read About CIMA's Accomplishments In
October 2012 Have you seen our latest reports, read about CIMA’s accomplishments in corporate responsibility, or heard about paragraph 47 from the Rio+20? Read all about it in Ethical Lens, CIMA’s newsletter about ethics and sustainability. DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE Ethics are important to me because… “…The management of an organisation’s funds is core to its credibility in the eyes of stakeholders. Confidence in those who maintain the financial controls, standards and records is critical to that credibility and to the ability of those people to operate effectively. As the Chief Financial & Operating Officer of CIMA I must operate to the highest ethical standards.” John Windle, Chief Financial & Operating Officer NEWS Managing Responsible Business Earlier this year we saw the release of the CGMA Managing Responsible Business report. In the light of this report the Accountant, together with CIMA and AICPA, hosted a panel discussion with experts in the field of ethics and accounting. Watch the webcast of the discussion on the CGMA website. Shortly after the report’s launch in Malaysia and Singapore, CIMA SE Asia signed up to a corporate integrity pledge, drafted by the Malaysia Institute of Integrity’s (MII). So far more than 50 companies – including AirAsia, Tesco Malaysia, Google Malaysia and Shell Malaysia - have signed up to the pledge, promising to uphold a business environment that is fair, transparent and free from corruption. 1 October 2012 REPORTS Acting under pressure This report highlights the different areas where management accountants might experience pressure in the workplace, set against the wider ethical environment. The report is based on the global CGMA ethics survey responses of 1760 CIMA members and students from more than 80 markets around the world.

Thinking Outside the Inbox Roger Steare
Thinking outside the inbox | 1 Roger Steare 42 Thinking outside the inbox “Roger is a lighthouse, in thick fog, in the middle of a zombie apocalypse” Richard Watson, author, Digital Vs Human Thinking outside the inbox | 2 “It’s said a good creative, in art or literature or music, can step outside the everyday and look at it with new eyes. A sideways view. Roger has this uncanny ability: to look at what we do every day, in work, in play and in interactions with each other and ask ‘if this is what we do only because we have always done it - is there a better way?’ He offers an alternative. A way that can turn confrontation into community, coercion into camaraderie and business into pleasure for all, top to bottom. Too good to be true? I’d certainly recommend you take the time to read and find out.” Nick Knowles, TV presenter and RTS award-winning writer “What Roger does so well is to stimulate your thinking in ways you never imagined. If you’re tired of the status quo, bored with the platitudes, washed out by the mundane, then open your eyes, ears and heart to the world of Roger. In Roger’s writing you will find inspiration, agitation and provocation, blended with intelligence, perception and kindness. He is unique.” Tracey Groves, CEO, Intelligent Ethics Thinking outside the inbox | 3 Contents Testimonials Why have I written this book? 24 The power of listening in silence 23 Hey Google, why is my boss a control freak? 22 How board behaviour affects corporate culture 21 What are the 10 most in-demand skills for 2019? 20 What are the 7 moral principles shared by almost all societies throughout human history? 19 How workplace meetings not only make us more anxious, they also make us more stupid.
