A souffle rises as the many fine bubbles of air in it expand in the hot oven. For it to maintain its height after being removed from the heat, the bubbles must have been cooked and dried enough so the walls of the bubbles are self supporting and not relying on the air in them.
The tricky part is knowing when this has happened without over drying the souffle which makes it less pleasant to eat. If, when a finger tip is pressed lightly on the top of the souffle, the surface bounces back, the souffle may be done. If it stays as a depression, the bubble walls are not yet self supporting. However, the centre may cook slower than the top of the souffle, so check this with a skewer or toothpick pierced into the centre of the souffle. It will come out clean if the centre has cooked. These same methods work for checking cakes.
If your souffle does sink, one way to make it less of an issue is to have a sauce to pour into the middle, or a few items to garnish the top, which can turn a saggy top into a feature. After all, it will still taste great.
