このコンテンツについて

 David Coulombe began his career as a mechanical engineer, but it was his restless curiosity that reshaped his path. He wanted to know why organizations miss what matters most, and how they could do better. That drive led him into internal auditing and risk management, where he challenged the old model of combing through past mistakes. Instead, he redefined audit as a forward-looking partner: one that tests readiness, strengthens trust, and raises capability across the enterprise. Now, David is pioneering how artificial intelligence can transform his field, and the organizations it serves. In conversation with Altus Growth Partners coaches Dan Winter and Jan Irene Miller, he shares a vision for leaders, boards, and teams: align on what truly matters, ask questions that expose real impact, and harness technology to anticipate challenges instead of react to them. This dialogue offers leaders a clear takeaway: if you want to future-proof your organization, you can’t wait for AI to “happen” to you. You must decide how to drive it. Key Moments You’ll Want to Hear 01:35: From engineer to auditor: David shares how curiosity and the desire to help others shaped his path. 03:35: Why the real value of audit isn’t accuracy of the past, but readiness for tomorrow. 06:14: What happens when leaders agree on what’s really critical and have a conversation about what they really want to achieve. 10:44: The rhythm of audit: helping leaders set objectives and anticipate risk on a 1–3 year horizon. 14:25: Why numbers are only the beginning—interpretation, impact, and readiness complete the story. 18:21: Looking beyond audit’s core mandate to ask the overlooked questions that matter most. 20:45: How optimism at the top can blind teams to risks they most need to face. 21:53: Defining trust: clear expectations, honest feedback, and timely course-correction. 24:45: Why exploring a full field of possibilities helps leaders reduce risk. 25:30: Navigating data points to uncover the reality. 30:22: How AI equips auditors to look forward and anticipate challenges. 37:27: The advantage for those who adopt AI early, and the steep cost of complacency. 45:02: Why leaders need healthy skepticism in the AI era. You can wait for this to be done to you, or you can drive it yourself. 🎧 Hear how David is redefining audit, not as a backward glance, but as a forward-looking partner helping leaders align, understand impact, and realize the AI edge.
