The Chief Scout Executive is the top professional of the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America. In most similar non-profit organizations, this is equivalent to the position of CEO,[1] national executive director or secretary general.[2]
Roger Krone is the current Chief Scout Executive, succeeding Roger Mosby in November 2023 after Mosby’s retirement.[3] Krone is the first Chief Scout Executive after the Boy Scouts emerged from bankruptcy.[4]
This position should not be confused with the position of Chief Scout. Many National Scout associations still use this position; however, it is always for a volunteer position, not a paid one. In the BSA, only three people (Ernest Thompson Seton, James E. West and Elbert K. Fretwell) have held the position of Chief Scout, which is separate and distinct from the position of CSE.[5]
