THE VACCINE POLITICS

Read Now
 
Picture


The politics on vaccines is another issue that can potentially escalate into another time-bomb. 

We have several vaccines that have promising results for the prevention of the COVID-19 virus. We know that these can take a few months before initial groups of people are monitored and the side effects of the drug are taken into consideration.

We'll have the vaccines as our  (Canadian) government committed to this a long time ago. Other countries have to wait until it becomes affordable and that preliminary results come out. No one wants to be the guinea pig, I suppose.

Vaccines are one thing but the equitable distribution, affordability, accessibility and appropriateness of these vaccines to differentiated needs of different populations come into question. Another issue is about protecting consumers who have elected to use these vaccines under development, which calls for regulation and complete transparency for public welfare.

We live in ambiguous times. We cannot trust our health systems and authorities that are overwhelmed and overworked to decide for our health, well-being, and safety. Like all systems, when it's saturated, it either collapses on the sheer weight of its load or dissipates into mediocrity or irrelevance. 

We also cannot turn a blind eye on the suffering and hardships that are experienced by our neighbors in the developing South. That's why we call on health equity across the board. Those that have multiple vulnerabilities and needs must be given equitable priority and attention and consulted adequately. 

Be your own health advocate and become a health advocate for others around you. The world is hyperconnected to risk being the weakest link.

SHOWING UP AND OWNING THE OUTCOMES

Read Now

Half of the battle is won by just showing up.

Showing up for your employees and staff when they need an ally and a champion for workplace effectiveness.

Showing up for community causes that are no longer optional or good-to-have but are essential for collective rejuvenation.

Showing up for suppliers who are hurting in this pandemic and needed measures to ease their financial and logistical difficulties.

Showing up for your customers to say that you care and offer help when it's not being expected.

Showing up for your stakeholders and generate collective voices so that those that are not on the table can be represented.

Showing up despite the fear and uncertainty of the new environment where we live in.

Showing up and owning the co-responsibility of charting the new future in your sector. 

When you show up, the world opens up for you. 

​Own the space and hold the space for others too!

SHOW ME THE MONEY

Read Now
 


Remember this famous line from the movie "Jerry Maguire" where the character of Cuba Gooding said, "show me the money!" 

In collaboration and partnership, the true test where there is partnership and collaboration is the mandate/project. 

Collaboration for collaboration's sake is nonsense.

There is no collaboration or promise of collaboration where there is no single uniting focus of where the collaboration will be. 

Promises are never guaranteed, unless we are talking of real, tangible benefits and rewards and the "work" that needed to get done by all the collaborators.

It is not just 'tit for tat'- it is more than that. It is about collaborating on a specific mandate that is too good to leave on the table and yet to powerful to be done by one organization or entity alone.

Show me the money (or in some instances -the mandate)  and I will show you how we can partner together.
