Despite her hard work and many qualifications, sociologists would argue that she will face difficulty settling into her new position. Which of the following is not an argument that sociologists would make regarding Kim Ng? A. Kim Ng is seen as a "diversity hire," so she doesn't have the skills or experience to successfully lead an MLB team. B. As a woman, Kim Ng's habitus is likely to be different from past general managers, all of whom were men. C. As a woman and an Asian-American, Kim Ng had fewer role models in leadership and sports than other general managers in the past, and she may struggle with impostor syndrome. D. The Miami Marlins, and the majority of all other professional sports teams, have been managed by men. Even if Ng uses similar tactics and a similar management style as previous general managers, the same behaviours coming from a woman may be interpreted and received differently by players and coaching staff.
