Reporting to Reluctance

Review "Audit Documentation" and "Audit Report" sections of Ch. 5, "Conducting an Information Systems Audit," of Understanding and Conducting Information Systems Auditing.

As a significant learning experience in your internship with an IT audit firm, you must design the audit presentation and report for a client who is reluctant to receive this information. The client is a member of senior management and believes only lower levels of management should be given the information.

Prepare and submit a 2- to 3-page paper, discussing how you provide the information to the senior manager.

Select either exit interviewing or a presentation.

Provide the logic for your selection and to what group in the organization you will first present the audit findings.

Include your logic for presenting to this group first.
