Kurt’s Lewis theory

Continue…
• Kurt’s Lewis theory is a theory of change which is based
on three stages; unfreeze, change and freeze which
provides a high level of approach for improvements to the
management (Díaz, S. and Et.al., 2019).
• It provides manager or the change manager a context to
implement a change.

Lewis change model:-
• Unfreeze: It refers “ready to change”. Unfreezing defines getting
individual to achieve perspectives on their daily activities, open up the
new ways and unlearn their bad habits of reaching their objectives.
• Change: It refers to implementation (French, J. and Gordon, R., 2019).
Once the change is learned by individuals and other team members the
process of change is implemented can be very flexible and it will take
time to be effective.
• Freeze: It can be understood as refreeze-“making it stick”. Change can
be effective when it is made permanent, and until the organisation
becomes the standard with the new changes.
