LOT Certification

The Leading Organizational Transition Certification 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.
