I circulated draft policy updates [days=two] days ago and I need consolidated feedback from [stakeholders=four] stakeholders by [deadline=end of week] for the governance meeting. Replies are fragmented and I fear I will misinterpret comments. Tell me whether I should request inline comments or a single annotated PDF, recommend the method that will give me the clearest, actionable responses in [hours=48] hours, and draft the short instruction I should send to stakeholders to get consistent feedback.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed.
