1. Modify the position 2. Pay attention to candidates' dream 3. Break conventions of hiring process - If a PhD candidate seems better for an MD position, break the convention & hire the PhD 4. Hire for talent's sake
Most do not strive to hire people better than themselves-instead follow hiring conventions & fill senior positions w good but not transformative leaders
Leaders fail to hire superb talent, because 1. Fear of talent 2. Individual overconfidence
3. Institutional Inertia 4. Faith in search process itself - depends too much

It's been 130 years since Dr Edith Quimby was born. 1st medical physicist even before #medicalphysics was coined. She worked w others to form @aapmHQ
Edith Quimby award is a prestigious award given annually to #MPs who have made significant contributions to the field
Her particular interest was in how & where to place the radioactive needles within the tumor for maximum therapeutic efficiency that led to "Quimby Rules" @AAWR_org@AAPM_WPSC@aapmWGSTR
The result was the "Quimby rules", a set of guidelines for exactly where to put the radium needles relative to one another which were standardly used from the 1930s until the onset of computerized treatment planning in the 1980s. @aapmstsc 250.ps.columbia.edu/featured-stori…
