A substantial number of statisticians work in isolated domain science departments without access to support networks and resources typical of larger statistical units. These isolated statisticians face many challenges including limited professional networks, non-traditional roles with idiosyncratic expectations and unique career paths. Furthermore, “the curse of success” lies ahead, as success of the department may only lead to greater demand and lagging support for the services needed. We provide suggestions for career development in an isolated environment by urging statisticians to build their network and become engaged with other statisticians to reduce isolation and identify mentors. We discuss the importance of regular communication with their supervisors to define one's role and navigate the change in expectations in the transition from a supporting role to a co-investigator to a core leader. To help with “the curse of success,” we explain how to develop a business model with a plan for future expansion and professional development. We conclude that isolation should not be perceived as a limitation. Opportunities and resources exist within the American Statistical Association (ASA) to reduce isolation and support career development. However, there is a need for a formal career path along with evaluation criteria and example business models to support isolated statisticians striving to become core leaders.

给在学术医疗中心环境中合作的独立统计学家的建议

大量统计学家在孤立的领域科学部门工作,无法访问大型统计单位典型的支持网络和资源。这些孤立的统计学家面临许多挑战,包括有限的专业网络、具有特殊期望的非传统角色以及独特的职业道路。此外,“成功的诅咒”就在眼前,因为该部门的成功可能只会导致更大的需求和对所需服务的滞后支持。我们通过敦促统计人员建立自己的网络并与其他统计人员合作以减少孤立和确定导师,为孤立环境中的职业发展提供建议。我们讨论了与他们的主管定期沟通以定义一个人的重要性 的角色,并在从支持角色到合作研究者再到核心领导者的转变中应对期望的变化。为了帮助解决“成功的诅咒”,我们解释了如何开发一种商业模式,并为未来的扩张和专业发展制定计划。我们得出结论,隔离不应被视为一种限制。美国统计协会 (ASA) 提供机会和资源来减少孤立和支持职业发展。然而,需要一条正式的职业道路以及评估标准和示例业务模型,以支持孤立的统计学家努力成为核心领导者。我们得出结论,隔离不应被视为一种限制。美国统计协会 (ASA) 提供机会和资源来减少孤立和支持职业发展。然而,需要一条正式的职业道路以及评估标准和示例业务模型,以支持孤立的统计学家努力成为核心领导者。我们得出结论,隔离不应被视为一种限制。美国统计协会 (ASA) 提供机会和资源来减少孤立和支持职业发展。然而,需要一条正式的职业道路以及评估标准和示例业务模型,以支持孤立的统计学家努力成为核心领导者。
