KM becomes a needful tool as a small organization grows and develops into a larger one because, when there are only a small amount of employees, they are able to remain in constant contact with each other and share their knowledge directly. But as an organization grows into a larger organization and the organization is separated into individual groups or functional units, it then becomes more difficult to keep open lines of communication and/or encourage the sharing of ideas. In essence, KM is a way in which technology can be used to facilitate the process of collaboration, across an organization. Knowledge that is embedded into each individual can be collaborated amongst many and be applied by others in their day-to-day operation for strategic usage.

Individuals within organizations can improve their performance by simply sharing their knowledge amongst one another through various activities i.e. training, research, or from day-to-day socialization process.
