MUSCAT: The Institute of Internal Auditors Oman recently held its Internal Audit and Organisation Excellence Conference, which marked a defining moment in the domain of internal audit and organisational governance.
Under the patronage of Dr Abdullah al Salmi, the conference, in collaboration with KPMG Oman, saw a confluence of industry stalwarts from major banks, advisory firms, and key governmental bodies. They shared pivotal insights on areas such as the future trajectory of auditing, the challenges and prospects of AI, and the increasing prominence of ESG in auditing.
One of the standout themes this year was the conference's focus on the younger generation.
Through workshops, networking, and mentorship, the event crafted a platform where the seasoned expertise met youthful exuberance, fostering a collaborative environment and a vision for the future.
The underlying sentiment echoed throughout was that the realm of auditing and organisational excellence is not only about navigating present challenges but also equipping the next generation to lead and innovate.
