If time becomes short during a presentation, what should the speaker do?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Focus on the key points and speak briefly
When time is limited, the speaker should preserve the presentation’s purpose by prioritising the essential points, conclusion, and any necessary action. Unimportant examples or repetition can be omitted, while the delivery remains clear and respectful. Adding more detail, going off topic, or blaming the audience wastes time and weakens the speaker’s professionalism.
