Christine,

I want to help and I need more information. Will you provide more 
information?

When you say:

"...knowing that no one from top management will be there that day..."

Do you mean no one from top management will be there, the day of the 
prework?

Or do you mean  no one from top management will be there, the day of the 
events?

Or both? Sounds like both, is this correct?
