 One important Change management theory that
will be discussed in this presentation is Lewin's
change management model.
 It is a simple model or framework which can
easily understand by managers in order to manage
the change.

Lewin’s Change theory
 Change is found to be an important and core concepts in organisation. Generally,
organisational members are not accepting change.
 It is found that Lewin's Change management model is a three-stage model which includes
unfreeze, change and refreeze.

Unfreezing
 The first stage is unfreezing which involves preparing an organisation for accepting
change as it is necessary for this success in development in the business environment.
 Unfreezing involves breaking down the existing status before building a new way of
operating

Movement
 The second stage is a movement which is created many uncertainties after the unfreezing
stage.
 This is stage is started when people begin to resolve their uncertainty. They are able to
believe that supports a new direction.

 In this stage, it becomes very difficult for the organisation when it needs to accept the
change and actually implement the change.
 Leadership principles help individuals to accept and keep always optimistic and realistic.

Refreezing
 The last stage is refreezing which requires refreezing the situation again when the changes
are taking shape.
 It is the stage in which people have embraced the new ways of working and they are
ready to refreeze in the new working conditions.

Conclusion
 It can be concluded from the above discussion that changes are necessary and it is
compulsory for each and every organisation to accept the changes.
 But it is analysed from the report as it includes a case study and which all the staff
members of nursing are facing complex problems.
