When beginning a compliance risk assessment, I want to know what risk areas leaders believe are well controlled. It says a lot when we can breathe a sigh of relief believing something is going well. After we confirm in the risk assessment that a risk area is, in fact, well controlled, we also get a good example. This example can be highlighted for others to understand and follow when working on controls in their areas.
