I agree with what you are all saying, but I just don't think it was implemented in a way that was very immersive. It's just simply functional, and that's about it....at least from what I can see. I could be wrong though. I think maybe you would have had to play FM 2008 to understand what I mean. It's simple enough that it doesn't require micromanagement, but not so simple that you lose the immersion factor.

One other note...it also appears that Scouting Directors also may not be able to take on other j obs because they are now only rated for scouting.
If you look at it as your scouting director managing all of your scouts and reporting back to you one report (which is realistic enough IMO) then this works. You are setting your financial and scouting priorities and letting the director do the rest.
