In The Hedgehog Effect, Manfred Kets de Vries presents the
case for leadership group coaching as an experiential training
ground for learning to function as a high performance team. His
group coaching model, incorporating living case studies, has been
developed over more than 20 years of delivering programs to
top-level executives and sets the standard in the field of
leadership group coaching.
Written for coaches, consultants, leadership development
directors, and anyone working in or with teams, The Hedgehog
Effect begins with an in-depth analysis of what teams and
groups are all about. The intricacies of leadership coaching are
illustrated with an elaborate example of a team coaching
intervention. In Part Two, the author applies a psychodynamic lens
to the dynamics of teams and groups, taking a close look at
relationship patterns, how groups evolve, and the phenomenon of the
group-as-a-whole. Part Three takes a more systemic perspective,
addressing the challenges that change processes pose for people in
organizations, and how to create best places to work. Kets de Vries
supports the whole with the story of an organizational change
initiative accomplished through group coaching.

Manfred F. R. Kets de Vries brings a different view to the much-studied subjects of leadership and the dynamics of individual and organizational change. Bringing to bear his knowledge and experience of economics (Econ. Drs., University of Amsterdam), management (ITP, MBA, and DBA, Harvard Business School), and psychoanalysis (Canadian Psychoanalytic Society and the International Psychoanalytic Association), Kets de Vries scrutinizes the interface between international management, psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, and dynamic psychiatry. His specific areas of interest are leadership, career dynamics, team building, coaching, executive stress, entrepreneurship, family business, succession planning, cross-cultural management, and the dynamics of corporate transformation and change.
A clinical professor of leadership development, he holds the Raoul de Vitry d’Avaucourt Chair of Leadership Development at INSEAD, France, Singapore, and Abu Dhabi. He is the founder of INSEAD’s Global Leadership Center.
