depends on the performance of the Lead Auditor. There are certain skills and attributes a
Lead Auditor should have to successfully lead an audit engagement. They must
understand their audit manual and the key audit standards to effectively get
the job done.

team properly so that every project runs smoothly. They must provide directions
to the audit team; assess the quality of the work of the audit team; provide
ongoing communication to audit management and audit clients; develop the draft
report; prepare for the exit conference; assess the performance of the audit
team; and many other minors
This CPE webinar
