reorientate

Adjust your bearings

Reorientate is a chiefly British variant of reorient—to adjust one's position, direction, or focus toward something new: After the merger, the company had to reorientate its marketing strategy.

Both forms mean the same thing; reorient dominates in American English, while reorientate appears more often in British usage.
