PART III

BUILDING A SUCCESSFUL CAREER AS A STATISTICIAN

THE PURPOSE of this part of the book is to provide hints to help statisticians succeed on the job.

We propose strategies dealing with project initiation and execution (Chapter 9) and with communication, publicizing, and ethical considerations (Chapter 10). We discuss the statistician's all-important, and frequently underappreciated, role in getting good data (Chapter 11). We then present alternative career paths that statisticians follow (Chapter 12).
