ABOUT MICHELE WOOD

As a seasoned leader with experience in the Management, healthcare, manufacturing and public Internal Controls fields, I am an interpersonal leader and thought partner experienced in leading teams, coaching junior staff members, and building rapport with stakeholders to effectively communicate audit findings, agree on remediating action plans and monitor their implementation by the agreed due dates. I am a trusted advisor supporting the development and implementation of processes and procedures to include internal audit frameworks, methodologies, and assurance programs while helping develop internal audit strategy, including the balance of in-house and outsourced internal audit resources to meet the company\'s needs.Throughout my career, I have prided myself on constructing, leading, and maintaining comprehensive and impactful compliance, risk, and audit programming for multi-national organizations. I have come to find that instituting a reasonable, risk-based approach to building and monitoring compliance and audit programs is, in fact, one of my superpowers. I bring polished and sophisticated tactics to streamline governance, regulatory compliance, and risk management. Proudly serving as the Director of Internal Controls and Regulations, Global Manufacturing, Quality & Supply at Fresenius Medical Care, I serve as a trusted advisor and audit liaison by developing and implementing reporting systems to communicate internal controls reviews results, performing risk assessments, and defining work projects for the internal controls group to establish best practices and controls around regarding risk areas.I thrive in environments where I can serve as an executive leader on compliance risks and strategies in the context of short and long-term commercial goals. Additionally, I can achieve measurable improvement in the risk profile, focusing on revenue growth, enhancing privacy programming, ensuring compliance, and succeeded in changing audit requirements to a self-performed audit and successfully concluded agreement.
