The Bridges Transition Model was introduced in 1991 in the book "Managing Transitions," by William Bridges. It's based on the premise that change will only be successful if leaders and organizations address the transition that people experience during change. In order to do this effectively, one must know the difference between change and transition, so in this course, we'll discuss this distinction. We'll also go over how the Bridges Transition Model works, which includes the three stages of transition that people experience during change.
