A Little Misdirection

Scouts need a lot of latitude to operate independently and make decisions on their own.

Scoutmasters have oversight and must, on occasion, engage in subtle course correction.

I am no Jedi Master but I do think of this classic exchange when encouraging my Scouts to abandon a misdirected course of action. Non-violent, unobtrusive and slyly powerful it reflects the tone and attitude that one sometimes needs to redirect focus. Hand gestures are optional.
