I don't really think of McLaren that way, I think his best attribute was he was a bullsh*tter and could bluff his way through anything and then hype up whatever they had done.

When I think of "getting the people in the room together" type people my first thought is the super producers of the 60s like Joe Meek & Phil Spector. Or more up to date Rick Rubin doing those albums with Johnny Cash or Mark Ronson.
People like that.
