What is aScout-led Troop?
Scouts taking responsibility for their activities and achievements
“Empowering scouts to be leaders”
- this is the core of Scouting
What does it mean when we say: “a Scout-led troop”?
Leadership is a position of responsibility; not authority
What does it mean for us?
• Opportunity to make plan, organize and make decisions
• An environment to practice how to lead others
• A chance to make mistakes and learn from our mistakes
• Allows us to learn how to teach others to be successful
• Learn the importance of working as a team
• Gives us a chance to be creative
• Opportunity to direct and run an organization
Our responsibility (Scouts):
• Attend and participate in our weekly meetings and monthly campouts
• Respect one another and allow our fellow scouts to lead
• Take responsibility for our actions• Provide solutions • Be part of planning and executing
of our events• Volunteer to help, organize and run
our events• Honor our commitments• Help one another at all times
.
The way we lead:
• A Boy Scout troop is a small democracy.
• Under the Scoutmaster's direction:– Scouts are formed into
patrols– plan the troop's program– …and make it a reality
• “The patrol method is not a way to operate a Boy Scout troop, it is the only way. Unless the patrol method is in operation, you don't really have a Boy Scout troop.”
• —Robert S. S. Baden-Powell
Success by empowering the Scouts
• Organize and run the Troop meetings• Organize and run the Troop activities• Utilize the Patrol leaders' council• Plan the Troop calendar• Plan and execute Public service activities• Plan Outdoor activities to learn and develop skills
Remember ……..Scouting is 75% outing
Adult Responsibility in a Scout-led Troop…
• Mentor• Guide• Counsel• Advise• Train• Delegate• Provide logistics• Support• Encourage• Safety net
……Adults are there to support the
Scouts
In a Scout-run Troop, Adults are…
A Scout-led Troop has little room for:
• Adults operating in Cub Pack mode• Adults loudly asserting authority• Adults jumping in with more enthusiasm than
patience• Adults enabling codependency• Adults driving advancement more than the scout• Adults solving the problems• Adults taking on the Scout’s responsibility• Adults packing the Scout’s campout gear• Adults socializing instead of supporting
