Describe the unfreezing stage of the Lewin change model.

On the individual level, the unfreezing could involve promoting employees or letting them go, preparing them for change, or convincing them of the need for a change. On the structural level, redesigning the organization could be the focus of the change effort. On the climate level, the company could create a new open-door policy or begin a data-based feedback system showing how employees are reacting to the proposed changes. In the unfreezing process, fear in some form is nearly always one of the major obstacles.
