Do you want to think and act more strategically?

By Reine Escalona on 2021-01-19 0

Interview with Swarna Khare

Outside of statistics departments, we are often seen as tactical and operational implementers. This branding makes it hard for statisticians to be included in strategic discussions. This limits our ability to influence the organizations and projects. It can even lead to entire departments being outsourced or not appropriately funded because of this terrible reputation. I’m long on a journey to fight against this branding. This journey also requires us statisticians to learn about thinking and acting strategically.

Thus, I’m thrilled to talk with Swarna Khare about this topic. Swarna is a long-term listener of the effective statistician and today, it is a great opportunity for her to share with us the ways to think and act more strategic.

We answer the following important points:

How to best visualize uncertainty

By Reine Escalona on 2021-01-12 0

Interview with Paolo Eusebi

Our job as statisticians focuses primarily on the analysis and communication of uncertainty in its many aspects. For this episode, I think of uncertainty as the variability in the population we are studying, the uncertainty around estimates, or the model uncertainty, which we might capture via looking into various models.

Interestingly, the visualization of uncertainty – one of the primary forms we use to communicate it – is a rather unknown field. In this episode, I’m very excited to speak with Paolo Eusebi, who has done research in this field to answer the following questions:

  • What can we learn from examples outside of medical research? How is it explained to the general public?
  • What’s the current status in medical research?
  • How can we become better in communication of uncertainty?
  • What are further excellent resources regarding the display uncertainty?

What you should know about change management

By Reine Escalona on 2021-01-05 0

Interview with Beth Manning

What is change management? Is it only something for big corporate initiatives or does it also apply to smaller changes?
Why does it require so much consideration?
What’s hard about change?

Change management is something I never thought about being interesting for statisticians, but recently, I needed to dive in to this frequently. I learned that this helps me when creating new designs or processes as it answers lots of questions about getting from an idea to an implementation.

So today, I’m glad I have a great colleague with me who is an expert on change management and has helped me a lot to drive changes within a big organization.

Knowledge sharing and what it means for you

By Reine Escalona on 2020-12-15 0

Interview with Nelson

Knowledge sharing is close to my heart and Nelson, who is a very knowledgeable statistician, has shared a lot of articles in LinkedIn and on his website.

Nelson has always been keen to learn from others and share that knowledge broadly, so we’ll be exploring similarities and differences in how he’s seen that be achieved in different circumstances.

We also discuss about the following points:

2 learnings from 150 episodes and an Important announcement

By Reine Escalona on 2020-12-08 0

I still can’t believe how fast things happened, and I am truly grateful for all of this. I interviewed a lot of people who have the same goal as mine – that is to build our expertise. I learned a lot and how important it is to know where the people I interview are coming from and how important it is to adapt my language to theirs.

In this episode, let’s dive in the 2 learnings I had:
