In this episode, Lucas and Luna tackle a common workplace dilemma: how to compose a professional email when you don't have the information the sender is asking for. Using a concrete example from a software engineering team, Lucas breaks down the three-part structure that buys you time without sounding defensive or evasive. They discuss the difference between a 'let me look into this' reply and a 'not my job' non-answer, the power of setting an explicit follow-up deadline, and how to avoid the trap of over-promising. Luna shares a personal story about a junior analyst who turned a 'I don't know' email into a career-building moment by adding a suggestion for who else might have the data. By the end, listeners will have a template they can adapt for any situation where they need to gracefully admit uncertainty while maintaining trust and momentum. #EmailEtiquette #WorkplaceCommunication #ProfessionalWriting #Careers #BusinessCommunication #EmailWriting #Uncertainty #Transparency #Template #TrustBuilding #Productivity #WorkplaceTips #CommunicationSkills #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #Episode89 #HowToEmail Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
