**Selecting an Existing Speaker:**

You can also choose an existing speaker from the "Select Speaker" dropdown menu. An existing speaker is someone who is already in the system. When you select a speaker, their details will automatically fill in the Add Speaker fields, and you can edit them as needed.

**Note:** All previously added information will be extracted, but any previous event session assignments will not be included.

**Step 4: Saving the Speaker**

After entering the details, click the "Save" button at the bottom-right corner of the menu to add the new speaker. This will create a new speaker at the organization level without assigning them to any sessions. You can move on to the next step to assign them to event sessions.
