Assurance mapping is a way of looking at risks and objectives for an organisation and mapping out how different organisational activities help (or don’t) to keep the risk or objective on track. In this episode, James Paterson explains how to undertake assurance mapping and the benefits of doing so – improved risk management, better resource deployment, less governance fatigue and more joined up reporting. Doing assurance mapping in a disciplined and structured way will provide you with a holistic perspective of what is going on in your organisation.
