I bet the senior manager is wishing they could just 'refreeze' the whole situation and avoid dealing with all the staff reactions. Good luck with that, T!

Human resource strategy/planning? I think the senior manager is a bit too far removed from the HR department for that to be the right answer.

Ha! Unfreeze-Change-Refreeze, really? That's Lewin's change management model, not the analysis technique they're looking for.

Hmm, I'm not too sure. It could be Organization Development theory, but that feels a bit too broad for this specific scenario.

Definitely Lewin's Force-Field analysis. It's the perfect tool for evaluating the driving and restraining forces behind a major organizational change like this.
