<p>&#8230; I kept my cool and made the adjustment. At the end of the day, the entire presenattion turned out really well.</p>
<p>As a professional speaker, how do you handle the UNEXPECTED when it arrives on the day of your big speaking gig?  Listen to my story, and tell me how you can learn from it.</p>
