About the COPSS-NISS Leadership Webinar Series
COPSS and the National Institute of Statistical Sciences (NISS) have come together to organize and host a new webinar series focusing on leadership in statistics and data science. Plan to attend these webinars every month during the academic year!
The COPSS-NISS Leadership Webinar Series is co-organized by the COPSS Emerging Leaders in Statistics and the NISS. The purpose of the webinar series is to promote leadership skills for members of the statistical societies at any stage in their careers. The series features conversations with leaders throughout the discipline, including leaders from major academic and government institutions, and companies. Invited speakers share their leadership stories and answer questions about their experiences. Each webinar is moderated by a member of the COPSS Emerging Leaders in Statistics program.
