Question : 44 of 100

Marks: +1, -0

Two small-business owners, Jensen and Ling, could not be more different. Jensen is easy going, easy to talk to, good at delegating responsibility, and quick to acknowledge the contributions of others. Ling, however, is often high strung, generally unfriendly, and unable to give up any authority; she is determined to be involved in every decision. This explains why Jensen’s business is successful while Ling’s business has failed.

The conclusion of this argument is based upon all of the following assumptions EXCEPT

the personality of a business owner is the main factor in the success of the business.
a business leader with Jensen’s type of personality is more effective than one with Ling’s personality.
Jensen and Ling were in direct competition with each other.
Jensen and Ling had similar educational backgrounds and a comparable level of business experience.
Jensen and Ling had comparable businesses operating under comparable circumstances.
