WILLIAM E. BRIDGES

I remember Bill warmly; he was a gifted mentor whose contributions played a major role in my work and life. His memory will always be alive for me.

I really value the work that William Bridges did on transitions. I have used it personally and professionally and it has helped many people. When I didn't know what was happening to me through my transition, Bill put words to it. It was much easier after that. Bill will be missed.

I never met Bill, but have used his transition model for many years, first in corporate change management, and now with women over 50 who are considering the next chapter of their lives. The concepts transform how people understand what they are experiencing as they let go of thier previous careers and life and venture into the unknown territory of unstructured choices. Thank you, Bill, for leaving us this wonderful way to navigate change! RIP.

Mr. Bridges has been instrumental in my life and my understanding of change. Condolences to his family!

I am so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I have fond memories of him at Thrivent Financial when he so competently and compassionately helped to guide us through our transition at the time of the merger. What a gracious man! I am thankful for all he gave to the world and for the influence he had on my own life - both personally and professionally.

Bill, Our talks, your poetry readings at the ice house will never be forgotten. Rest in peace. My love to you, Dan and family.

His insights and teachings for how to navigate change and transition remain a significant influence in my life and work. His legacy includes significant contributions "transforming business as usual into business at its best." Thank you and rest in peace, Dr. Bridges; I was lucky to know you.
