?nfreezing is the stage of organization develop$ent in which participants are $ade aware of proble$s in order to increase their willingness to change their behavior. This stage is often associated with diagnosis" which uses a change agent" an O7 specialist who contracts with an organization to facilitate change. Changing is the intervention stage of organization develop$ent in which individuals e(peri$ent with new wor.place behavior. 2efreezing is the reinforce$ent stage of organization develop$ent in which individuals ac3uire a desired new s.ill or attitude and are rewarded for it by the organization.

1*1. Force field analysis was first proposed by 9urt 8ewin. @e argued that change was the result of the co$petition between driving and restraining forces. 7riving forces are the forces behind the change and are supportive of it. 2estraining forces resist the proposed change" counterbalancing the driving forces. To successfully i$ple$ent change" $anage$ent should analyze these two sets of forces and their relative strengths. Manage$ent can facilitate successful i$ple$entation by reducing the strength of the restraining forces or by eli$inating the$. 1*1. The four tactics for overco$ing resistance to change are= A1B co$$unications6education which is used when change is technical" A B participation" which is used when the users need to feel involved" A%B negotiation" which is used when the group has power over i$ple$entation" A&B coercion" which is utilized when a crises e(ists" and finally A)B top $anage$ent support" which is use when change involves $ultiple depart$ents of reallocation of resources.
