I’m finding that most of my internal auditors (about 20) are stepping down either because they aren’t interested, are too busy, or can’t get the time approved by their supervisors to conduct an audit. As a result, I think I’m going to get to train new auditors!
I think my boss feels we don’t have enough auditors, since it’s always so hard to find someone whose schedule matches available times to do the audit. I think he’d like to increase the team to about 30 people. Honestly, I’d much prefer to hand-pick a cross-functional team of about 8 people based on personality, perceptiveness, and schedule flexibility.
For one thing, with 20 auditors, most of them only conduct 1 or 2 audits per year, if that. As a result, I have to go along for every audit, since they are so unsure of what to do. I feel like a smaller, more involved team would be preferable. I already have about 4 people in mind that I’d love to have on the team. I just need to convince my boss to try it with a small pool of people.
Do you have a small or large auditor pool, and how do you feel it works out for you?
