What is the Audit-Tested Performance Management course about?

Even well-run remote teams struggle to prove performance under formal review. Outputs are measured, but evidence trails are fragmented. Feedback is frequent, but defensible standards are missing. When compliance, investors, or auditors ask: 'Show us how this was achieved,' most systems collapse.
