| Rania Bejjani - Meet the host! The vision of Impact Legacy with Rania | 26 Jan 2026 | 00:01:29 | |
I am Rania Bejjani - After a long executive career as three times Chief Audit & Risk Executive across three global complex regulated businesses leading teams of 80 people across multiple countries and jurisdictions, I am now Global Board & Executive Advisor | Mentor | Speaker in Governance.Risk. Audit - linkedin.com/in/raniabejjani Based in London, originally from Lebanon and I travel a lot. In fact, I am a global citizen having lived in four countries and worked across all 5 continents. I am also trilingual. I am passionate about being authentic, stepping into the best version of ourselves, being of service as a leader and making a positive impact in the world. I believe: For leaders to stand out they must be authentic and real, take ownership for how they show up, build trust and connection, shape the perceptions of those who matter, create value by thinking strategically and delivering on their promises and importantly, they need to constantly reflect, learn and be curious to grow and succeed. This is why I created Impact Legacy with Rania - A podcast for leaders and future leaders who want to have greater meaning, influence and step up. It is a space for authentic conversations, sharing human stories and experiences to spark ideas, widen perspectives and hopefully inspire leaders to step up, infuse more authenticity and heart into their leadership and claim their impact and carve their future legacy. I would love to stay in touch, please join the conversation by subscribing, commenting and sharing the episodes and clips that inspire you. Thank you. Let's build this journey together to create even more influence, impact and legacy.ย ย You can fine me on YouTube | Podbean | Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | |||

| Reimagining Internal Audit: AI, Risk & Resilience | Rania Bejjani with Biju Nair | 16 Apr 2026 | 01:06:32 | |
In this episode ofย โจ@ImpactLegacywithRaniaโฉย , ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ป๐ถ๐ฎ ๐๐ฒ๐ท๐ท๐ฎ๐ป๐ถ, Global Board and Executive Advisor on Governance, Risk and Internal Audit and three times former Chief Audit & Risk Executive, is joined by ๐๐ถ๐ท๐ ๐ก๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฟ Chief Audit Executive at ๐จ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฏ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ธ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐จ๐๐ and Chairman of the Banking & Finance Subgroup of the ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐๐๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐๐๐ผ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป, for a deep dive into Internal Audit, and especially the use of technology in the Banking sector. Internal Audit is being redefined. Frankly, with AI, IA is at a crossroads. Rising expectations, accelerating technology, and fast-changing, increasingly interconnected risks, combined with the growing need for resilience at every level of the organisation, require Internal Audit to reimagine itself and shift into a forward-looking, predictive and value-adding function. With over 30 years of international experience across India and the UAE, Biju brings a rich perspective shaped by leading Internal Audit functions across conventional, Islamic, and digital banks, and contributing to the founding of new institutions in the region. Together, they explore what it truly means to reimagine Internal Audit in a world shaped by AI, increasing regulatory pressure, audit fatigue, and the rising cost of compliance. From the shift from control to influence, to the role of aligned assurance and forward-looking risk management, this conversation challenges traditional thinking and invites leaders to step into a more strategic, value-creating role. This is a reflection on leadership, judgement, and the evolving expectations placed on Audit, Risk, and Governance professionals in a fast-changing world, grounded in pragmatic insights that can be applied in the real world. For Chief Audit Executives, Risk leaders, Boards, Audit Committee Members, and emerging professionals across Governance, Risk, Compliance, Information Security, Data Analytics and AI Governance, this episode offers a moment to pause, reflect, and reconsider what real impact looks like today. ๐ง Watch on YouTube or listen on Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Amazon Music ๐ฌ ๐ฆ๐๐ฏ๐๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ฒ โข ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ โข ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ and join the conversation shaping the future of the profession. ๐ Connect with Rania Bejjani on LinkedIn for more insights: linkedin.com/in/raniabejjani ๐ฉ Explore Advisory, Mentoring & Leadership Development Programmes: Hello@RBAdvisoryandConsultancy.co.uk ๐ Connect with Biju Nair on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bijurs #internalaudit #ai #riskmanagement #banking #Audit #uae #resilience #alignedassurance #integratedassurance #Governance #GRC #Leadership #AuditTransformation #StrategicLeadership #StrategicBusinessPartner #FutureOfWork #Influence #BoardLeadership #ImpactLegacywithRania | |||
