Couldn't agree more, This has been my strategy for years working for busy managers. You have to make the life easy for them. Try to avoid sending open ended questions to them, instead send something that they can either sign-off fully or partially. If you can't detail out all the requirements on your own, try to reduce the scope of the task until you can and try to give enough context for the manager to say Yes/No. Also, if anything is vague and you manage to setup a video call to clarify it then make sure to create a slide with your topics on and walk them through 1 by 1. My experience is that visionary minds like startup CEOs have a tendency to go completely off-track otherwise.
