What is Scouting/Guiding? + Leadership

I have been asked to conduct a two lecture series on “What is Scouting/Guiding?” and “Leadership” at DHS’ upcoming PLTC.

Before I do my preparations, this post simply seeks to elicit views from participants.  If you are a participant in the upcoming PLTC, please leave your views in the comments below.

Some questions to provoke your thoughts are provided here:-

  1. What is Scouting/Guiding to you?
  2. Did you choose to join?
  3. What is leadership to you?
  4. How do you lead others?
  5. What makes you a leader?
  6. Whats the difference between a leader and a manager?

Your responses will be crucial in helping me scope my lecture appropriately.  Please respond freely, I won’t mention any names during my lecture (apart from randomly asking questions).
