The students have to select one topic from two given topics. One of the topics was ‘capitalism and democracy cannot co-exist and another was ‘In management, we do not need people who have never experienced setbacks. Such people are highly risk averse because business schools mainly focus on stellar academic achievements during admissions, and the selected students turn out to be average managers’.
