"In western world, Change management means 'A' replacing 'B', 'B' replacing 'C'. But in Indian context, " 'A' + 'B' + 'C' " is a change management."

Elaborating ahead...!!!
You see when people talk about change. One of the things really noticed is, we always talk about change as replacement. So, version 1 is replaced by version 2, a better software comes and old software discarded. This works in a homogeneous ecosystem. But, the reality of society is, we are heterogeneous.
The world is diverse. For some people need version 1, and for some people need version 2. Different people need different software. So, we(as Indian concept of change management) don't think in terms of replacing a book, it is about building a bookshelf. So, the one of the biggest lessons I learned is people think of change as replacing a book with a better book.
Indian way of changing is build a bookshelf. Add books and depending upon context, you can categories them differently. Depending upon your needs you will keep using different resources. Therefore, you can have much more knowledge. So knowledge becomes, not about replacing what you know, it is about expanding what you know. That's the model.
The model is slightly different!
You don't have to forget what you knew before, don't forget anything. It will become useless, use full sometime or the other and that is the different way of thinking. It is you keep adding to your knowledge. You don't forget your past. You can not forget your past. This is the biggest thing noticed when people talk about change.
Change is not about replacing, it is about adding and developing the skill of figuring out when to use 'A' and when to use 'B' and when to use 'C'.
