At both
conferences, I noticed some last-minute cancellations. Presenters couldn’t make
it, became ill, had to leave early due to emergency, or something. This leaves
those who have planned the conference in something of a lurch as they want to
provide workshops for the attendees. Likewise, attendees want options. One
workshop cancelled is usually surmountable, but two at the same time can be
devastating.
However,
since I carry most of what I’m doing in my head, I could easily do another
workshop on the spot with little difficulty. In the future, I will inform those
putting the conference together that I am ready to fill-in for any workshop
cancellations. As long as I have access to a business center where I can get
some copies made, I can readily print my handouts for the workshop.
