Parking lot question

A question you need to park (save) until the end of a presentation.

It's a fancy way of saying, "Please hold all questions until the end of the presentation."

This protocol is usually reserved for business meetings held over the telephone, a setup that seems to embolden participants to jump in at any time with multiple long-winded questions, slowing down the meeting significantly, and leading other participants to become unfocused to the degree that they start playing solitaire and mentally disengage from the meeting.
