We sat down with Danielle Ritter of TriNet and Tom Caputo of Tribune Media to talk about where audit can bring value to an organization, how to build relationships with executive management, and more!

In the video below, Danielle Ritter, Executive Director of Internal Audit at TriNet, tell us how audit can validate a department’s need for resources to fix an issue, why it’s important for internal audit to get involved early when change occurs, and how to build the skillset and knowledge to audit ever-evolving technologies.
