One can perform a financial statement audit in accordance with all of the standards but unless you walk amongst the people (client's staff), talk to them (you initiate the conversation); look at what is actually going in in the work environment, and actually listen to what people are telling you (and not telling you), often the result will be a substandard audit. This presentation discusses how you should do each of the above in an effective manner that will significantly increase your chances of performing an effective audit and detect any problems that would result in a material misstatement.
