Topic: So you want to create a Hotline? Don't do it, but.... - This presentation will involve an interactive discussion on the challenges one Internal Audit Office experienced in the development of their organization's Employee Hotline. Specific examples will be shared with the attendees, as well as, the specific challenges faced by the internal audit staff. Experiences will be explained in a very humorous way because you can't make up these examples. Attendees will gain an understanding on the importance of creating an Employee Hotline but also learn it is not an easy process.
