reorientation = orientation (transparent) = re + orient + ation
Adding 're-' to 'orientation' straightforwardly gives the meaning of a new or renewed orientation.

Reorientation comes from re- meaning 'again' and orient meaning 'to find a direction'. So a reorientation is choosing a new direction or focus, like a company changing its course or a person changing their plans.
