The correct answer is the option D

Explanation:

Kurt Lewin said that before you can cook a meal that has been frozen, you need to defrost or thaw it out. The same can be said of change. Because many people will naturally resist change, the goal during the unfreezing stage is to create an awareness of how the status quo, or current level of acceptability, is hindering the organization in some way. Old behaviors, ways of thinking, processes, people and organizational structures must all be carefully examined to show employees how necessary a change is for the organization to create or maintain a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
