How much money do I have left?” she asked. I wished I could slip her a note: $50, Art Institute of Chicago, Wrigley Field. But she was on her own and running out of steam. “I wouldn’t have to spend much money to walk around and enjoy the architecture,” she repeated, and we clapped as she sat down. Natalie, the next speaker, was given $20,000 to spend in Madrid. She started off strong: “I’m a photographer, and I could buy a lot of great equipment with $10,000, so that’s what I would do first off !” But as she reached around for her next thought, it was as if an inner dimmer switch was getting turned down. She began to stand back on one leg, her weight shifting away from us. She looked down at the floor, thinking. When she spoke again, she tried to steady her voice. “I’d take the train out of Madrid and go to Portugal,” she said. Good job, I thought. “You don’t have to answer the question as it’s asked” sounds like something only political spin doctors say, but in many situations it’s true: When you’re stumped, you can often redirect the discussion. Remember that you do know stuff. You have something to offer, so offer it without feeling lame or apologetic for not knowing everything at all times. Natalie clearly knew more about Portugal than Madrid, and, now on comfortable terrain, she spoke fluently of Lisbon’s museums and restaurants. A minute later, she finished to applause.
