Introduction

Force Field Theory Analysis

Lewin’s force field analysis is a tool for distinguishing factors or forces that influence an individual towards or away from a desired outcome (or change). The forces that aid in making decisions that will make change more acceptable can be analyzed. Forces are more than attitudes to change. Peoples emotional state can prevent them from accepting change, therefore we need to understand factors that are related to their values or experiences that contribute to resistance. Force field analysis helps us to analyze a condition and then plan corrective actions.
