It's an excellent idea to always have a presentation ready, even when you are not the scheduled speaker. Being ready to step in front of a group on a moment's notice can be extremely valuable, no matter what field you are in. you'll want to have some notes, a PowerPoint presentation, and a catchy title to get the audience's attention quickly.

In 2008 I attended Armand Morin's Big Seminar for the first time. One of the speakers was unable to attend because he was out of the country and had some paperwork that needed to be filled out before he could return to the United States. It became obvious that he would not be back in time to do his talk, so Armand had a find a replacement. Someone he had known for awhile stepped up and said that he had a presentation with him that would be perfect for the theme of the event.

Turn your notes into a PowerPoint presentation, creating both a long and a short version. The long version would go for about ninety minutes, while the short one could be delivered in about thirty minutes. The reason for this is that different venues require presentations of different lengths.

Then save it to a flash or jump drive and always carry it with you, especially when you go out of town to another event.

Being able to come forward in an emergency and have a presentation that's ready to go will give you a reputation as being someone who is
