Three Eagle Scouts (Rob Faris, Ted Knight and Harry Wimbrough) have co-authored a practical guide for Scoutmasters, Assistant Scoutmasters, Venture Advisors and other Scout leaders.
Illustrated by Scout Joseph Durel, the Guide is intended to be a resource that will help you, a Scout Leader, train your Scouts to become effective leaders. "We wrote
this guide as part of self-evaluation
that brought us back to the very beginnings of
Scouting. Lord Baden-Powell had great insights. They
are still completely valid today, a century after
B-P first formulated them. Training Scouts
to be and become leaders will sometimes be challenging
and possibly even frustrating. Put your
trust and faith in the program B-P created for
us and our Scouts. If you continue to do
your best, you cannot fail. If you ever
get the feeling that B-P himself is standing over
in the corner of your campsite or meeting hall
watching you as you interact with your Scouts,
you will have achieved some degree of success."
Topics include:
Understanding and Communicating "The
Why"
The Why of Scout Leadership Training
The Patrol Method - Theory and Practice
Striving for Excellence
Ethical Leadership: The
