Writing an email to my boss depicting that I cannot attend the meeting.
Subject: Unable to Attend Mandatory Meeting on 15.05.2024
Dear Moris Jason,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am writing to inform you that I will be unable to attend the mandatory meeting scheduled for 15.04.2024, as I have a previously planned vacation day which was approved on 12.05.2024. I had made these arrangements well in advance, and I wanted to ensure that my absence is communicated to you with sufficient notice.
I understand the importance of the meeting and am committed to staying aligned with the team’s goals and objectives. To ensure that I am up to date with the meeting outcomes, I will:
- Coordinate with a colleague to get a summary of the meeting and any action items that may pertain to my work.
- Review all meeting materials and follow up on any necessary points upon my return.
- Be available to catch up on any discussions or decisions made during the meeting at your earliest convenience.
Please let me know if there is any preparatory work, I can do in advance to minimize the impact of my absence. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.
Thank you for considering my situation. I look forward to contributing to the team’s efforts upon my return.
Warm regards,
Mehrab Nehal, Senior software developer
