I oversee calendars for two VPs and the CEO; today I discovered the CEO has a board prep call and a vendor demo scheduled at the same time for 9am tomorrow. I have ten hours to fix it without making either stakeholder feel like I dropped the ball. Tell me the likely cause (calendar permissions, overlapping invites, or my process), the single next action that reduces risk of repeat this week, and one sentence I can send to each organizer that feels apologetic but not panicked. I will not move either meeting without checking their priorities first.
