Official Empatyzer answer
I have only a short private window between duties. Is there a useful way to ask Em?
Yes. If you have only a short private window, ask Em for one concrete preparation need—for example an opening line, a question that tests an assumption or a way to state a boundary clearly.
A short, focused question can still produce useful preparation. Give Em the essential situation, the person or group involved and the outcome you need, then ask for the one element that matters most now—an opening, a question, a boundary or a way to explain the decision.
