Men and Women Working Together for Real Change Men and women working together for real change February 2018 30% Club . The 30% Club is a global campaign that signs up Chairs and CEOs to take action to create a better balance of men and women at all levels of their organisations as a business imperative rather than a ‘women’s issue’. The Club launched in the UK in 2010 with a target of a minimum of 30% women on FTSE-100 boards by 2015. There are 259 members of the UK Club and the proportion of female FTSE-100 directors has risen from 12.5% to 28.4%*. As of 2016 the scope of the above target was extended to a minimum of 30% women on FTSE-350 boards by end 2020 (currently at 24.8%*) . In tandem with the above – and in order to ensure that this 30% remains sustainable – we have also established a pipeline target of a minimum of 30% women at senior management level of FTSE-100 companies by 2020 (currently 25.2% at Executive Committee + direct report levels**). The 30% Club is becoming an international community. It complements and amplifies individual company efforts and existing initiatives through collaboration, sharing of best practice, measurable goals and joined-up actions. The 30% Club does not believe in mandatory quotas. Instead, the 30% Club is aiming for meaningful, sustainable, business- led change, as recommended by the Davies and Hampton-Alexander Reviews. Scarce representation of women at senior levels is a global phenomenon. Local 30% Clubs have been launched in the US, Hong Kong, Ireland, Southern Africa, Australia, Malaysia, Canada, Italy, the GCC and Turkey.

  • Statistics Making an Impact
    John Pullinger J. R. Statist. Soc. A (2013) 176, Part 4, pp. 819–839 Statistics making an impact John Pullinger House of Commons Library, London, UK [The address of the President, delivered to The Royal Statistical Society on Wednesday, June 26th, 2013] Summary. Statistics provides a special kind of understanding that enables well-informed deci- sions. As citizens and consumers we are faced with an array of choices. Statistics can help us to choose well. Our statistical brains need to be nurtured: we can all learn and practise some simple rules of statistical thinking. To understand how statistics can play a bigger part in our lives today we can draw inspiration from the founders of the Royal Statistical Society. Although in today’s world the information landscape is confused, there is an opportunity for statistics that is there to be seized.This calls for us to celebrate the discipline of statistics, to show confidence in our profession, to use statistics in the public interest and to champion statistical education. The Royal Statistical Society has a vital role to play. Keywords: Chartered Statistician; Citizenship; Economic growth; Evidence; ‘getstats’; Justice; Open data; Public good; The state; Wise choices 1. Introduction Dictionaries trace the source of the word statistics from the Latin ‘status’, the state, to the Italian ‘statista’, one skilled in statecraft, and on to the German ‘Statistik’, the science dealing with data about the condition of a state or community. The Oxford English Dictionary brings ‘statistics’ into English in 1787. Florence Nightingale held that ‘the thoughts and purpose of the Deity are only to be discovered by the statistical study of natural phenomena:::the application of the results of such study [is] the religious duty of man’ (Pearson, 1924).

  • “It Took a Global Conflict”— the Second World War and Probability in British
    Keynames: M. S. Bartlett, D.G. Kendall, stochastic processes, World War II Wordcount: 17,843 words “It took a global conflict”— the Second World War and Probability in British Mathematics John Aldrich Economics Department University of Southampton Southampton SO17 1BJ UK e-mail: [email protected] Abstract In the twentieth century probability became a “respectable” branch of mathematics. This paper describes how in Britain the transformation came after the Second World War and was due largely to David Kendall and Maurice Bartlett who met and worked together in the war and afterwards worked on stochastic processes. Their interests later diverged and, while Bartlett stayed in applied probability, Kendall took an increasingly pure line. March 2020 Probability played no part in a respectable mathematics course, and it took a global conflict to change both British mathematics and D. G. Kendall. Kingman “Obituary: David George Kendall” Introduction In the twentieth century probability is said to have become a “respectable” or “bona fide” branch of mathematics, the transformation occurring at different times in different countries.1 In Britain it came after the Second World War with research on stochastic processes by Maurice Stevenson Bartlett (1910-2002; FRS 1961) and David George Kendall (1918-2007; FRS 1964).2 They also contributed as teachers, especially Kendall who was the “effective beginning of the probability tradition in this country”—his pupils and his pupils’ pupils are “everywhere” reported Bingham (1996: 185). Bartlett and Kendall had full careers—extending beyond retirement in 1975 and ‘85— but I concentrate on the years of setting-up, 1940-55.

The following are among those who were awarded enhances the University’s teaching and research year on year. The collective impact of donations particular distinctions by external organisations in 2009/10. made to Bristol cannot be underestimated.

Titre original : Histoires de mathématiques et de populations © Cassini, Paris, 2008 Pour l’édition portugaise : © Nicolas Bacaër, 2021 ISBN : 9791034371778 Dépôt légal : mai 2021 Introdução A dinâmica populacional é a área da ciência que tenta explicar de uma forma mecanicista simples as variações temporais do tamanho e da compo- sição de populações biológicas, tais como as dos seres humanos, animais, plantas ou microrganismos. Está relacionada, mas sendo bastante distinta, com a área mais descritiva das estatísticas demográficas. Um ponto comum é que fazem um uso extensivo da linguagem matemática. A dinâmica populacional está na intersecção de vários campos: mate- mática, ciências sociais (demografia), biologia (genética e ecologia da po- pulação) e medicina (epidemiologia). Devido a isto, não é frequentemente apresentada como um todo, apesar das semelhanças entre os problemas en- contrados em várias aplicações. Uma notável exceção em francês é o livro Teorias matemáticas das populações1 de Alain Hillion, que apresenta o as- sunto do ponto de vista do matemático, distinguindo vários tipos de modelos: modelos de tempo discreto (t = 0;1;2...) e modelos de tempo contínuo (t é um número real), modelos determinísticos (os estados futuros são conheci- dos com exatidão se o estado actual for conhecido exatamente) e modelos estocásticos (onde as probabilidades desempenham um papel importante).

It is a story of great achievement which needed to be told, and current and past members of the department have kindly supplied the anecdotal material which gives it a human face. Much of this achievement has taken place since my retirement in 2005, and I apologise for the cursory treatment of this important period. It would be marvellous if someone with first-hand knowledge was moved to describe it properly. I should like to thank Steffen Lauritzen for entrusting me with this task, and all those whose contributions in various ways have made it possible. These have included Doug Altman, Nancy Amery, Shahzia Anjum, Peter Armitage, Simon Bailey, John Bithell, Jan Boylan, Charlotte Deane, Peter Donnelly, Gerald Draper, David Edwards, David Finney, Paul Griffiths, David Hendry, John Kingman, Alison Macfarlane, Jennie McKenzie, Gilean McVean, Madeline Mitchell, Rafael Perera, Anne Pope, Brian Ripley, Ruth Ripley, Christine Stone, Dominic Welsh, Matthias Winkel and Stephanie Wright.
