Out with the Old?

BBC World Service - In the Balance, Out with the Old?

Will we always be condemned to economic cycles of boom and bust? Plus Mindfulness at work

Manuela Saragosa and her guests ask whether we'll always be condemned to economic cycles of boom and bust.  Plus we find out about Mindfulness at work.

This week the programme heads to Cambridge for the university's Festival of Ideas to look for inspiration on new ways to solve old economic problems.  Manuela Saragosa and her guests ask whether we'll always be condemned to economic cycles of boom and bust.  Plus we head to the Orchard Tea Rooms in the leafy village of Grantchester to find out about Mindfulness at work. And we discover who the key risks were to former management consultant, Colm O'Regan's, efforts to bring about change.
