  • In the context of teamwork, kick-off meeting is important.So, everybody should be present 
  • When the team members say they can not attend, then they are not ready  for the meeting or busy with some other issues.
  • Still, if you insists to attend, the final  result for such important kick-off meeting will not be very fruitful.

So, the best option is to reschedule the meeting (OPTION-D)  and stating the importance of  the meeting, request the team members in writing to confirm attendance  by return mail
