What Is Emerging. AI, Tech and Risk.

Internal Audit is standing at the edge of one of the most significant shifts in its modern history. The question is no longer whether AI, technology and emerging risk will reshape the profession. The question is whether Internal Audit is ready to lead, adapt and remain relevant as the risk landscape accelerates.

In this Episode 2 of 4 of the Audit Beacon Podcast Series, created especially for Internal Audit Month, Rania Bejjani | Global Board and Executive Advisor. Mentor. International Speaker and Former three times Chief Audit & Risk Executive and Audit Beacon Award recipient brings together a global virtual roundtable of fellow 2025 Audit Beacon Award recipients to explore what is emerging across AI, technology, cyber, digital transformation, governance and enterprise risk.

This episode features Dr. Ursula Schmidt from Luxembourg, Gehan Alharbi from Saudi Arabia, and Tom McLeod from Australia, each bringing a distinct global perspective on where Internal Audit is today and where the profession must go next.

Together, the conversation explores the evolving role of Internal Audit in an AI-enabled world, the need to move beyond traditional assurance mindsets, and why auditors must strengthen their strategic judgement, technology fluency, risk intelligence and influence at the top table.

Timely, human and strategic, this episode is for Chief Audit Executives, Internal Audit leaders, GRC professionals, Risk Management leaders, Audit Committee members, Boards, technology leaders and future-focused auditors. It is a powerful invitation to think bigger about the profession’s role in shaping resilient, ethical and future-ready organisations.

In this episode of ⁨@ImpactLegacywithRania⁩ , 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗕𝗲𝗷𝗷𝗮𝗻𝗶, Global Board and Executive Advisor on Governance, Risk and Internal Audit and three times former Chief Audit & Risk Executive, is joined by 𝗕𝗶𝗷𝘂 𝗡𝗮𝗶𝗿 Chief Audit Executive at 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗿𝗮𝗯 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗔𝗘 and Chairman of the Banking & Finance Subgroup of the 𝗨𝗔𝗘 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, for a deep dive into Internal Audit, and especially the use of technology in the Banking sector.

Internal Audit is being redefined. Frankly, with AI, IA is at a crossroads. Rising expectations, accelerating technology, and fast-changing, increasingly interconnected risks, combined with the growing need for resilience at every level of the organisation, require Internal Audit to reimagine itself and shift into a forward-looking, predictive and value-adding function.

With over 30 years of international experience across India and the UAE, Biju brings a rich perspective shaped by leading Internal Audit functions across conventional, Islamic, and digital banks, and contributing to the founding of new institutions in the region. Together, they explore what it truly means to reimagine Internal Audit in a world shaped by AI, increasing regulatory pressure, audit fatigue, and the rising cost of compliance.

From the shift from control to influence, to the role of aligned assurance and forward-looking risk management, this conversation challenges traditional thinking and invites leaders to step into a more strategic, value-creating role.

This is a reflection on leadership, judgement, and the evolving expectations placed on Audit, Risk, and Governance professionals in a fast-changing world, grounded in pragmatic insights that can be applied in the real world. For Chief Audit Executives, Risk leaders, Boards, Audit Committee Members, and emerging professionals across Governance, Risk, Compliance, Information Security, Data Analytics and AI Governance, this episode offers a moment to pause, reflect, and reconsider what real impact looks like today.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗮 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻, 𝘂𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹?

In this deeply human and thought-provoking conversation on @ImpactLegacywithRania, 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗕𝗲𝗷𝗷𝗮𝗻𝗶, Global Board & Executive Advisor, Leadership Mentor and former Chief Audit & Risk Executive, engages with Lady 𝗦𝘂𝘇𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝘆𝘄𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗖𝗕𝗘 (Baroness Heywood of Whitehall), Chief Operating Officer of Exor, Chair of CNH Industrial and Iveco Group, Audit Committee Chair at The Economist, Director on various Boards, and former Senior Partner at McKinsey, to explore leadership, resilience and judgement forged through adversity and pressure.

From a childhood spent at sea navigating isolation and survival, educating herself independently and picking kiwi fruit to fund her escape, to leading at the highest levels of global business and public service, and from growing up in Lebanon in a war zone, navigating loss and rebuilding life across continents, to becoming a global advisor to boards and leaders, Suzanne and Rania bring a rare and powerful dual perspective on how lived experience shapes leadership.

This conversation goes beneath the surface of titles and achievements to explore how early experiences and adversity shape leadership, judgement and impact, how leaders remain steady when stakes are high, and why resilience is not only about endurance, but also about clarity, courage and decision-making under pressure.

Together, they reflect on:

• The shift from survival to leadership

• Remaining calm and clear in moments of chaos, pressure and uncertainty

• The human dimension of leadership at the top

• Legacy beyond titles, roles and recognition

• A Chair's perspective on what boards truly value in governance, risk and audit leaders

• Leadership in the context of AI and accelerating change

• Life lessons for the next generation

This conversation about leadership when it matters most is for you if you are a Board member, CEO, C-Suite Executive or Audit, Risk & Governance Leader or professional.
