What to do if you have no time to prepare for a presentation?

Do you recognize being asked to give a presentation, but you don’t have sufficient time to prepare for this? What to do? The answer is simple: “Don’t do it”. To be able to give an excellent presentation you will need time to prepare. If you don’t have time to prepare you normally should not give the presentation. Avoid situations like this and make it clear that you need sufficient time to prepare for giving a presentation. In most situations it will be better giving the presentation at a later point in time when you had sufficient time to prepare.
