At each conference, around forty invitees are drawn from senior levels of politics, business, the armed forces, media, and academia, with roughly a third of guests being American, a further third being British, with the remainder being of other nationalities. The director of the Foundation is usually a retired ambassador - the current director is Jeremy Greenstock , former British Ambassador to the United Nations. Discussion begins with all members present, before participants divide into three sub-groups, each having its own chairman and ''rapporteur'' to summarise proceedings. Proceedings end with one more conference-wide session. Like the similar Bilderberg Meetings , discussions are private and non-attributable. A corresponding American Ditchley Foundation helps to shape the conference program as well as select American participants. John Major , the former British Prime Minister, is the current chairman of the Ditchley Foundation. Its first chairman, in 1958, was the British historian Sir John Wheeler-Bennett . REFERENCES
