Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Manual for applying the psychotherapeutic approach to organizations.When Manfred Kets de Vries uses stories - from his own experience, history or Zen parables - to show how you can use psychology to understand the workplace, his points are clear and seem immediately applicable. Admittedly, his discussion of the theories that frame and guide his work vary from instructive to somewhat obscure, and his classifications of personality and organizational types may seem arbitrary, but when he explains the processes involved in change, he is realistic and humane. Philosophically or psychologically inclined readers may really want a more thorough explanation of de Vries' concepts, such as how unconscious structures interact with cultural ones. Those who take a less theoretical approach may not be as intrigued. getAbstract thinks that readers who exert some conscious patience will find the author's core points about the role of the unconscious in the business world insightful and useful. Rating:  - Best YetUsing the psychodynamic approach yet speaking in the plainest terms, Kets de Vries has delivered his best book to date. Both de rigeur and timeless, this book is a must for any leader or manager who wants to be more effective in their role. Using recent business cases mixed with ancient philosophy the reader will learn about themself and other peoples motivations from a psychological perspective and by doing so improve their chances of attaining the highest levels both organisationally and personally.
