[N] Deborah Calmeyer shares that line or reasoning. In planning luxury safari provider Roar Africa’s women’s-empowerment (赋能) retreat last year in her native South Africa, she hired women for all positions, from chefs to pilots. Finding trackers to lead the group’s safari drives, however, proved challenging. South Africa’s first and only qualified female tracker drove one vehicle, while a pair of male trackers drove the other trucks.

　　[O] Sometimes, changing just one mind is victory enough, in the eyes of Calmeyer. “We asked one of the male trackers in the group, ‘Would you see your daughter doing this job?’” Calmeyer explains. “He said no, absolutely not. By the end of the trip, however, he tapped me on the shoulder and said, ‘Yeah, my daughter can do this.’”
