I’ve been in corporate communications for a couple of years. Prior to that I was a journalist. I’ve noticed something that really bugs me… there’s no discussion/debat/pushing back on anything. Anything leaders say is pretty much treated as gospel, even when it’s not their area of expertise or they’re actually wrong, with a lot of praise and accolades from subordinates for everything. If someone offers input that is seen as disagreeing with a leader, it is disregarded without consideration. I thought this was primarily because of the last CCO who wouldn’t tolerate any opinion/views different from her about anything but it’s true of her replacement too, and across other leaders. This is the polar opposite of how things work in news where there’s lots of back and forth and disagreements, often heated, on stories and it makes for much better, more robust materials/content. I’m wondering if this is unique to the company I work at/due to the culture of this specific team/if it’s a broader industry issue.

I’ve been prescribed Saizen by my doctor in the GTA in Ontario ahead of starting other medications for my first IVF cycle. it’s classified as a specialty drug and I’m wondering if anyone has successfully had it covered by insurance. I’m required to also apply for OHIP coverage alongside submitting a prior authorisation form to my insurer (both of which also need to be filled in by the doctor and the clinic charges for it and will take their own sweet time completing it). Wondering if it’s worth the hassle. Thanks in advance!
