Interview with Liz Thompson
- What are you good at? What are you passionate about? What can you do to add value to the society?
- Statisticians have all the necessary skills to make things happen and they should try to find an option to make such changes happen by standing up and getting out of the office to engage with people and organizations that relate closely with their passion.
- Working on your passion entails working more on value. For statisticians who want to gain more satisfaction from what they do, stepping out of their comfort zone may be a great choice to consider.
- From connecting with different networks and meeting other advocates, the skills and knowledge of a statistician can be used further when the goal is more focused on a creating a specific solution to improve patient-care.
- To make that choice of stepping out of statistics, you must weigh your odds, find your passion, connect with the right network, and be motivated enough to make the change you want to achieve.
