This model describes a change process as a movement from the current state, through a transition state, to a desired state. It consists of three phases: unfreezing, changing, and refreezing. During the unfreezing phase, an organization prepares for change by recognizing the need to change and reducing barriers to change. In the changing phase, the organization implements the desired change. Finally, in the refreezing phase, the organization establishes the change as a new habit or norm. This model is widely used in organizational development and change management.
