Level 2 presents personality profiles as a frame for presentations. As suggested in Level 2, framing presentations with personality profiles
fosters communication on a deeper level,
establishes a connection with audience members’ dominant personality trait, and
helps understand how audience members make decisions.
While reflecting on the material offered in the EI Games: Presentation Skills Course and developing your paper, consider prior learning and prior work experience, in addition to the material presented. Disagreeing with the principles presented in Level 2 is appropriate. However, do not reject the offered principles out of hand. Support acceptance or rejection of the offered principles with critical thinking and sound reasoning. To complete this assignment, you will need to select one of the approaches offered in one of the above videos to refer to in the below bullet points.

How will you address the common use of so-called canned presentations? Is it possible to frame canned presentations with a general personality profile, or must all presentations be tailored to a specific audience?
How much training in personality assessment do those framing presentations with personality profiles need to leverage the concept effectively?
