The Impact of Social Capital on Overcoming Systemic Barriers and Lack of Benefit of the Doubt for Black Women in Leadership: Insights from Kamala Harris’s Presidential Campaign by Jennifer R. Bishop

“…This paper uses social capital theory and the newly proposed benefit of the doubt (BoD) theory to examine how Black women leverage networks and resilience to navigate barriers, highlighting the structural privileges that disadvantage them. A conceptual framework model that highlights the pathways through which social capital, BoD denial, and organizational evaluation practices intersect, impacting leadership opportunities for Black women, is included to visually demonstrate these dynamics and the interaction of key constructs in the leadership trajectory of Black women.…”
