In this episode of Auditors Save the World, podcast host Leita Hart-Fanta, CPA interviews auditing superhero, Robert Rubel, about his career’s audit adventures.
In our last podcast episode of Auditors Save the World!, we followed Robert Rubel and his team as they unraveled a decade-long web of deceit. They exposed the truth and restored accountability. Unfortunately, every hero knows that shining a light on the shadows doesn’t always make you popular.
This time, the story takes a dramatic turn. As the proverbial poo hit the fan, Bob found himself not only in the splash zone, but at the center of his community’s scrutiny. Wrongly maligned and unfairly blamed, Bob became infamous in the court of public opinion.
But true heroes rise above adversity. Despite the slings and arrows, Bob’s resilience and unwavering integrity led him to a new chapter where his skills as an audit leader could thrive. In this episode, we hear how Bob landed on his feet, proving that even when the storm rages, the principles of justice and leadership shine through.
Join us now for Episode 3: From Infamy to Integrity. This is a story of resilience, redemption, and the enduring power of doing what’s right, no matter the cost. Bob proves auditors must have a thick skin for the tough days, a compass pointing to integrity, and the inner knowledge that true leaders always find a way forward.
