What’s HOT • January 2018 Event
• American Cancer Society Hope Lodge
*** Audit Like a Rock Star ***
President’s Message ethics CPE for holders of any IIA certifications. Registration is still open so reserve your space today. In February we have our annual student night event, where we will again be inviting students from all of the local universities. Our presenter for the event will be Maunda Land who is the Director of Membership Engagement, Diversity, and Student Programs at The Institute of Internal Auditors. Maunda will be discussing current trends for the internal audit profession and the skills needed to begin and succeed in an internal audit career. As we are discussing ethics in January, our lyrical offerings for this newsletter relate to ethics: “The media is the seduction of human desire (set their money, set their money, on fire), if you try to sell me the truth then I know you're a liar, a liar It's the tyranny of normality, it's the tyranny of normality Our culture has become complacent, and has no desire (take back, take back our empire), and the ethical slaughter of truth needs to be retired, retired”
- "Tyranny Of Normality" by Papa Roach
What Else is Inside?
St. Louis IIA Members - Happy New Year and welcome to 2018! I hope everyone was able to take some time to relax and be with family and friends during the holiday season. In December, we had our annual meeting and Holiday Party at Bixby’s Restaurant in the History Museum. Our speaker gave a wonderful presentation about etiquette throughout history based on information found in the history museum’s library and archives collection. Following the presentation those present spent time networking over cocktails and appetizers. It was great seeing so many of our members attending the event. As we move into the second half of our chapter year, we have some amazing programing coming up. This month we start with our annual 2-hour ethics training. This year we have Nejolla Korris, an international expert in the field of Linguistic Lie Detection. Nejolla’s presentation will cover Personal ethics vs. professional ethics, how easy are ethics to define in the workplace, and does employee behavior influence ethical practice. Don’t forget that this year the IIA has added a requirement for 2 hours of

December Meeting Recap
The December meeting and social event was at Bixby’s Restaurant inside the Missouri History Museum. Attendees enjoyed drinks and appetizers and learned about the evolution of polite behavior from Emily Jaycox, a librarian at the Missouri History Museum Library and Research Center. Emily shared examples from the library and archives collections, as well as advice from etiquette books, historic photographs, and drawings to help us discover the ever-evolving standards of politeness that illuminate the relations between men, women, classes, and races.

Wikipedia defined Volunteering as an altruistic activity where an individual or group provides services for no financial gain “to benefit another person, group or organization”. The definition continues on explaining that Volunteering may have positive benefits for the volunteer as well as for the person or community served. When we volunteer we connect with others, improve lives, strengthen communities, and solve problems while we transform our own lives. January is the mid-point for our chapter year, and our officers are already thinking ahead to our next chapter year, which begins July 2018. Do you want to connect with colleagues from different organizations as well as help strengthen our St. Louis chapter by elevating the internal audit profession? Do you want to develop leadership skills including those associated with strategic planning, teamwork, communication, and problem solving? Please take a few minutes to look at our Chapter Contacts on page 11 of our newsletter for the committees and volunteers who help our chapter run smoothly. We have several committees to choose from that allow different levels of involvement (e.g., working on individually, participating in a group.). Please contact any of the Chapter Officers for more information on a committee that may interest you.

“Quest for Platinum” status
every month!
Chapter Achievement Program (CAP) CAP is the acronym for Chapter Achievement Program. The program has been established on the premise that the basic mission of the chapter is to serve its members first and then the internal audit profession. The program, sponsored by the International IIA, encourages local chapters to be active both for the benefit of the chapter members and of the local community. Local chapters earn credits for the CAP through in the following categories: a) service to members; b) service to the profession, and c) chapter administration. The Chapter Achievement Program is made up of three performance levels: bronze (685 credits), silver (1,060 credits), and gold (1,560 credits). Thanks to your efforts, our chapter has attained gold status every year since 1997. After ten consecutive years of achieving gold, a chapter achieves Platinum level which this chapter has earned since 2006. So what can a member do to earn CAP points for the chapter? Examples, include:
Attend the monthly chapter meetings; Attend chapter sponsored seminars; Utilize the chapter sponsored Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) review course; Earn an IIA certification; Develop questions for the CIA exam; Recruit new members; Present speeches or training sessions; Write internal audit-related articles for publication; Provide an internal audit internship at your company for a student; and Come up with an innovative way to promote the chapter
So, it's easy to contribute and it doesn't take too much of an effort. You can report CAP activity on the chapter website or directly to the CAP Chairperson Brent Statler at bstatler@sccmo.org.
