Leading Organizational Transition: Train-The-Trainer Program

Barely 30% of all organizational change initiatives succeed. Even with a solid change strategy in place, plans are abandoned, implementation is delayed or employee resistance is unexpectedly high. Business case studies and professional literature repeatedly identify proper management of the human side of change as the critical missing link in change initiatives.

In exclusive partnership with William Bridges & Associates, Linkage offers a proven system that addresses the human side of change. For over three decades William Bridges applied his highly-acclaimed Three-Phase Transition Model to guide individuals and organizations through difficult changes. This model has stood the test of time and has provided individuals and organizations across sectors with a framework and tools for successfully embracing change.
