Great strategy, Dan! As a Toastmaster, we practice giving impromptu speeches each meeting as practice for when we are in such a situation. I can attest firsthand to the extremes of going from having nothing to say to rambling! This strategy will not only enhance one’s credibility as a speaker, but also build a bridge of positive influence with the audience!

Dan, I agree 150%!!! Gratitude not attitude carries much further. Thank you for your example, stories and advice!
