Two VIPs, One Exec, Zero Slack

Both need her in the next ten minutes

FThe Workshop 4.3 (461) 4,610 taken 20m Executive Assistant

The situation

Your exec is in a hard stop until 4:30. At 4:31, the company's largest investor calls wanting 'fifteen minutes, now' — and simultaneously the keynote partner for tomorrow's launch shows up unannounced in the lobby, jet-lagged and expecting dinner. Both are people you cannot afford to slight. The exec can do one thing in person tonight. You broker the rest without either VIP feeling like the runner-up.
