Just to prove that Craig is a Master Cubmaster, he wrote a book on the subject titled Mastering Cubmastering!

This book is a wealth of information. It is intended for that person who stepped up, but doesn’t quite know how to make unit leadership happen. It discusses the things the BSA doesn’t tell them: how to identify and garner volunteers, how to structure finances, legalities, a ringer recruiting approach, managing religion in Scouting, leadership roles, etc.

It’s great for those just stepping in and trying to make sense of it all.
