Morphology
repositioning = reposition (transparent) = re + position + ing
The noun is a standard -ing formation from the verb 'reposition', meaning the act or process of doing it.
Etymology
Repositioning breaks into re- meaning 'again' and position meaning 'place', so you can think of it as putting something into a place again or into a new place. That's why repositioning means the act of placing someone or something in a new position.
