Evidence-based and data-driven regarding biostatistics itself 13. Goal-oriented 14. Has a formula for success with common sense solutions 15. Supports career advancement for applied biostatisticians and removes the glass ceiling 16. Has great people skills and knows how to improve morale 17. Creates an incentive program that is aligned with the Vanderbilt Pillar Goals 18. Focuses on using biostatistics to support Vanderbilt and improve patient outcomes 19. Supports teaching and empowering physician-scientists with biostatistical skills Other strategy: From a statistical research perspective this person should be internationally recognized, and should have published important papers that shows that he/she has statistical 'vision.' He/she should be involved in the statistical community is a leadership capacity (e.g., study section, ASA executive committees). From a collaborative research perspective, this person should come from a good place where he/she would have had success at publishing in high impact scientific journals as a co-author or first author. We should probably go to places where people are willing to leave. Maybe go to places in cities with ridiculous cost of living. Maybe go to places that are known to be good but it would seem that people are willing to leave.
