Abstract

The rapid development experienced by modern management has led to an increase in the need for individuals with competence and the ability to lead. Scout leaders must keep pace with the scientific and technical development witnessed by the contemporary world. The research aims to build a measure of the administrative qualifications of the scout leader from the point of view of the holders of the wooden badge and to identify the administrative qualifications of the scout leader from the point of view of the holders of the wooden badge. The researcher used the descriptive survey method to find out the administrative qualifications of the scout leader. The researcher designed a questionnaire as a data collection tool that consisted of two axes: the first is the administrative qualifications and included (10) items, while the second axis is the scout qualifications, which included (14) items. The study population consisted of (70) scout leaders who carried the wooden badge for the first, second and third Rusafa education directorates. The study reached the following results, namely that the scout leader has the ability to plan scout programs, set up camps, manage and organize its own scout squad, and the ability of the scout leader to implement scout programs within the available capabilities. One of the most important recommendations was to involve leaders in studies, training courses and workshops, because of its role in enhancing their knowledge of the lofty message of the scout movement, its goals and principles in raising a generation capable of serving the country, and conducting research in the field of management in scout work
