Submitting to
Inside Sarbanes Oxley

After nearly 2 years of gathering news and resources on Sarbanes-Oxley, the Inside Sarbanes Oxley editorial team has decided that—in order to keep this resource growing both in terms of content and value—it would in the best interest of all parties if we put out a call out for white papers, case studies, columns, points-of-view, and other resources that might help our community better understand the solutions and best practices of the industry.

To post white papers, case studies, and columns—free of charge—send them to submissions(at)insidesarbanesoxley.com.

Personally, I think this could potentially be the best means of rapidly adding to and sharing the collective body of knowledge on Sarbanes-Oxley. And for those of you who are so inclined, it's also an excellent way for an organization to gain visibility as a leader in developing practices by using one of the premiere Sarbanes-Oxley resources to your advantage.

For an example, take a look at the content IDS Scheer provided for their Sarbanes-Oxley solution page

While all submissions are welcome (and free of charge), a few areas on which we're hoping to see submissions include:

• How the language and discussion of "risk" and "control" are being incorporated into the corporate decision-making DNA, being integrated into decision making practices from operational budgeting and IT investments to strategic planning for the growth of the organization;
• How organizations are beginning to view this body of experience in their talent management efforts, and incorporating this developmental skill set into their leadership maturity practices;
• How HR organizations are testing innovative approaches to recruitment in a tight talent pool, advising management on the consideration of "project" labor versus ongoing staffing in a sustainable model, and
• How Sarbanes-Oxley is driving knowledge management practices within organizations, making visible the value of process management and transparency in improving decision making practices.

Sound interesting? We hope so. And we're hoping that you take this opportunity to submit your resources for inclusion. Each submitted resource will receive:

• A dedicated entry in the Inside Sarbanes Oxley blog, the premiere blog on all things Sarbox
• Distribution in the Inside Sarbanes Oxley RSS feed, the leading RSS for Sarbanes-Oxley news
• A dedicated page on Inside Sarbanes Oxley, a completely objective third-party information resource
• Your company logo (optional)
• Author photo (optional)
• Author bio (optional)
• Submissions that our editorial board deems especially thought-provoking will also be featured on the Inside Sarbanes Oxley discussion board

All content—previously published or original—is welcome. Multiple submissions from individual companies are welcome. All submissions will be treated on a first-come, first-served basis. And, please bear in mind that all entries are subject to the discretion of the editorial board.

To participate, send your proposed resource(s) to
submissions(at)insidesarbanesoxley.com. Cost? Only the time and effort it takes you to create the resource and send it. Everything else is free. If only audits were so easy...

Best,
