For over 30 years, William Bridges Associates has been the global leader in delivering Transition Management training. The three phase Bridges Transition Model has provided individuals and organizations with a framework and tools for successfully managing the human side of change. Even with a solid change strategy in place, thoughtful attention to human transition is often the critical missing link needed to sustain new initiatives.

These programs are offered exclusively by William Bridges Associates.

We are currently modifying our programs in response to client requests. We are evaluating new methods for training and delivering this content in more flexible and accessible formats. At this time, we will have limited delivery capacity.

Managing Organizational Transition

Fostering the capacity to implement genuine change is increasingly important as competition becomes global. Our research across sectors suggests that the failure rate of change initiatives – reengineering projects, mergers and acquisitions, implementation of strategic plans and of IT systems – is a shocking 70%. Interestingly, the most commonly cited influencer to determining the success or failure of change initiatives is people. Why? When people are not adequately engaged with change, they resist it. However, when people identify and let go of what must be left behind and can build meaning and reach out for what is new, they become capable of initiating and generating sustainable change.

This course teaches managers how to manage the internal transition process, the human process that has been repeatedly identified as the missing link in failed change efforts in business. Read more.
