It’s turkey time people. Regardless of what this time of year means to you personally, it’s inevitable that you begin to think about what you’re most thankful for in life whether that’s people, situations, chocolate chip cookies, whatever.

Remember the dinosaurs from your history books? Extinct, right? Well, this is the way some companies are going because they focus all their efforts on looking backwards. And to me, this is precisely where audit and risk committees  have a crucial role to play: not to focus on the same issues, but have a different mindset.
