Albert Einstein’s driver used to sit at the back of the hall during each of his lectures. After a period of time, the driver said to the famous scientist, “Boss, I’ve heard you give that speech so many times … I could give it in my sleep.”
So at the next lecture, Einstein and the driver switched places, with Einstein sitting in the back, dressed in the driver’s uniform. The driver gave the lecture flawlessly.
At the end of the lecture, a member of the audience asked a detailed scientific question. Without missing a beat, the “lecturer” replied, “Well, the answer to that question is so simple, I’m going to let my chauffeur who is sitting in the back answer it.”
Lesson:
You don’t have to be the most qualified in a topic to give a good presentation, but make sure those that are, are close by.
