Define the role

State the original plan, the change, and the fixed commitments it affects. Include the decision the executive must make rather than forwarding a long thread.

Set the operating model

Keep approved preferences and sensitive travel details in the right system. The change brief should contain enough context for action without widening access unnecessarily.

Choose with care

After the trip, record what caused the change and what rule would make the next adjustment easier.
