Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) Part 2: Practice of Internal Auditing — Question 29

Which of the following would be an appropriate and effective control self-assessment approach in an organization with an authoritative culture?

I. Facilitated meeting -

II. Survey -
III. Management-produced analysis

Answer options

• A. I only
• B. I and III only
• C. II and III only
• D. I, II, and III

Correct answer: C

Explanation

In an authoritative culture, a survey and management-produced analysis are effective as they allow for structured feedback and insights from leadership, while a facilitated meeting may not align well with the culture's top-down approach. Therefore, options II and III are suitable, making C the correct answer, while A and B exclude critical methods and D includes an ineffective option.
