Handling Q&A with confidence

Have you ever had to lead a Q&A session after one of your talks/presentations?

• Yes

• No

Do you prefer taking questions during the presentation or during the Q & A (Question & Answer) session?

• During the presentation

• During the Q & A session

How do you prepare for the Q & A session?

What do you say to questions you don't want to answer?

What do you do if you can't answer a question?

How do you handle difficult questions?

That would be interesting to find out, but...

• I prefer not to answer.

• it's outside the scope of my research.

I’m not sure that’s correct

• ,but I’ll look it up and we can discuss it later.

• .

I'm afraid that's...

• not my field.

• important to discuss.

Does that...

• make sense?

• answer your question?
