Book excerpt: Change and Knowledge Management has to be seen in the light of the evolution of the Knowledge era, which made inroads during the nineties. With the establishment of an intranet in large organizations, exchange of information was easily available and suddenly feasible. This lead to the beginning of the knowledge society in general and Knowledge organization in particular. The immature anticipation of knowledge era where it was thought that information would be shared by every member of an organization through a common platform and the quality improvement process would be enabled more or less by itself, took a couple of years to realize the assumption as false. Till now, there are no examples of a company in which transformational learning has been facilitated by an Information Technology system only, because the early initiators forgot the human element involved in this exchange. It also failed to address that information does not equal knowledge and that human knowledge is in the strength of the persons who constitute the parts of a bigger structure. Bridging the gap between the knowledge individual and the organization and taking the technical as well as the personal element to facilitate the change process in an organization is the endeavor of this book.
