The Brainstorm

Mitchell on Meetings

Available for over a year

David Mitchell started the series as a meetings sceptic. Has he been converted? In the last episode in the series, David is joined by Professor Margaret Macmillan to tackle one of history's biggest meetings - the 1919 Paris Conference. We learn there's nothing new about management away-days or brainstorming sessions - they were being used a hundred years ago. Producer: Chris Ledgard
