Amanda Jo Erven
Amanda "Jo" Erven, CPA, CIA, CFE, is the President and Founder of Audit. Consulting. Education. LLC. After a successful career in external/internal audit and accounting, Jo is now an active Internal Audit Strategist, Management Consultant, Higher Education Professor, and Trainer/Speaker, providing Continuing Professional Education (CPE) hours, live and virtually, to organizations across the globe.
Jo's firm is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education (CPE), and delivering CPE training to professionals virtually via webinars (perhaps in her pajamas) is her favorite "wing" of her business.
Jo's trademarked proactive approach to internal audit, Total Quality Auditing, was published in both book and workbook format early in 2019 (entitled Total Quality Audit: How a Total Quality Mindset Can Help Internal Audit Add Real Value).
Her second book, entitled Your Road. Your Choices., was published in late 2019 and she has turned the material into an engaging and meaningful keynote presentation that she has loved sharing with audiences everywhere.
But Jo's ULTIMATE passion is helping organizations see how important living your values... ethics, integrity, honesty, trust... is to sustaining success. In fact, she just published her THIRD book in which she provides us the steps to Becoming The Everyday Ethicist (the book's title).

Say Something... Even If
Speak the truth, even if it seems inconsequential... even if it is hard... even if it means losing a friend or even a job.
It's simple really, but not as easy as you think.
Ethics to me is knowing the difference between right and wrong and having the will and courage to act on it. We like to think of ourselves as being ethical, but the truth is, none of us are as ethical as we think we...

We make choices that echo our feelings, attitude, motivation, and perspective. We make choices that form habits, good and bad. We make choices that shape our careers. We make choices about how to lead. We make choices that turn out to be mistakes. We make...
Becoming The Everyday Ethicist™

There are a few things I've learned as a successful entreprenuer, leader, and woman in today's world that I can't wait to share with you... to truly show you how to become the anchor in your...
Total Quality Auditing®
W. Edwards Deming, the founding father of the Total Quality Management (TQM) movement, said you cannot "inspect in" quality. Well, I am here to say you cannot "audit in" ethical conduct, adherence to good standards of conduct, good culture, governance, risk management, internal controls, or compliance with laws and regulations. And you cannot "consult in" satisfying customers, improving productivity, and eliminating waste.
