Only thing I do differently is throw that "Bob" at the start of the phrase instead of the end. Hearing your name triggers your brain to focus, so start with "Bob, let me know if you have an issue with this.... Since XYZ is in your team's area of expertise I'm asking that you resolve it by.... "

Saves a lot of time and embarrassment on the "sorry, I was multitasking, can you repeat that?"

Oh god this. The number of times somebody says my name after the end of a long monologue is too damn high.

Meetings are times when we’re doing double work—sitting on the meeting, and actually doing stuff. Don’t expect me to give you my full attention, you know full well that I’m working on things more important than you.
