Describe – In our previous lesson I understand the importance of Force field analysis and the
change model developed by Lewins. According to Lewin’s force field analysis, situations can
be maintained with an equilibrium between the forces that introduces change and other
measures that can resist change (Mak & Chang, 2019). It is a useful decision-making tool that
mainly help the business owners to analyze the driving forces for and also against change.
Based on the forces, Lewins developed a change model with three different stages (Bakari,
Hunjra & Niazi, 2017). First step is Unfreezing – this is the first stage that includes the
improvement of the readiness and the willingness of the people initiating for change
management. Second stage is change – it is considered as the stage of transition. Final stage
is Freeze – it is the stage that involves the people to move from the stage of transition to a
stable stage that is the stage as equilibrium (Smartt, Casey & Ferreira, 2018).
Interpret – What we need to analyze is to understand the nature of change in organization.
Organizational change can be categorized in to types namely planned change and unplanned
change (Rosenbaum, More & Steane, 2018). According to the force analysis, the main forces
that driving the change are technological change, international integration of the economies,
and some environmental demands. The consequences will bring positive development for the
organization.
Evaluate – As a student the concepts are very significant as it allows to differentiate the
nature of the forces. According to their nature it is clear to understand what are the external
and internal forces for change management within the organization. It can be easily
understood from the analysis that the environmental elements do possess an interaction for
change management (Bakari, Hunjra & Niazi, 2017). Along with this, the PEST analysis can
bring other factors driving the change that includes political, economic, social, and
technological factors.
