Title: "From Statistician to Statistical Consultant"
Abstract:
"Statistics can be regarded as a branch of mathematics. Certainly, it
is widely agreed that a good grounding in mathematics is required for
a thorough understanding of statistical techniques and the assumptions
that underlie these techniques. Of course, the education and training
of most Statisticians goes beyond mathematics, in order to cultivate
the unique perspective that can enrich the modelling of real world
situations.
However, despite the breadth of the curriculum in the undergraduate or
postgraduate education of the statistician, no one would claim that
this training produced a fully competent statistical consultant. So,
what further skills does a statistician need if he/she is to become an
effective consultant?
This seminar focuses on the people issues that arise during
consultancy and discusses how the appropriate inter-personal skills
can be developed."
