Recently, Richard Chambers, was engaged in an exchange with a respected colleague who suggested once again that internal audit change its name. I still wasn’t convinced that would be good for our profession, but I decided to cast a net across the global profession to hear what others think of the idea. So, I posted the question to my 24,000 LinkedIn connections by queuing up this post:

For years, people have proposed changing the name of internal audit. Some departments have changed their name. If you have/were going to call internal audit by a different name, what would it be?
