Public speaking situations can change. When they do, you may have to choose between adjusting your speech, changing its context, or totally abandoning your script. Don't despair!
You can adjust your speech by changing the context of the delivery. In the event you have to change the entire speech, try these steps:
Open up a dialogue with the audience. Get their feedback on where THEY think the direction the presentation will take.
Switch the topic to something of mutual interest. Find out what they want want to know or learn.
What attitude or belief ties the above together?
Pick three supporting topics that you can discuss at reasonable length, and then, finally, start talking.
