Key Insights



Workforce outcomes are the result of an
organization's workforce processes
Just like product development processes and
service delivery processes, workforce processes
can be systematically managed and improved
What is needed is a workforce process
management model:
The People Capability Maturity Model (P-CMM)
8

People CMM
The People CMM is a roadmap for implementing workforce practices
that continuously improve the capability of an organization’s
workforce. It enables organizations to:
attract, develop, organize, motivate, and retain the
workforce required to build their products and deliver
the services
align workforce development with strategic business or
mission goals
characterize maturity of workforce practices
set priorities for improving workforce capability
Curtis, Hefley, & Miller (2008)

Guiding Principles of the P-CMM - 1
The ten People CMM v.2 principles that summarize the
People CMM philosophy.
1. In mature organizations, workforce capability is directly
related to business performance.
2. Workforce capability is a competitive issue and a source of
strategic advantage.
3. Workforce capability must be defined in relation to the
organization’s strategic business objectives.
4. Knowledge-intense work shifts the focus from job elements
to workforce competencies.
Pg 4-5
5. Capability can be measured and improved at multiple
levels, including individuals, workgroups, workforce
competencies, and the organization.
SEPG 2014
Mogilensky
Guiding Principles of the P-CMM - 2
6. An organization should invest in improving the capability of those
workforce competencies that are critical to its core competency
as a business.
7. Operational management is responsible for the capability of the
workforce.
8. The improvement of workforce capability can be pursued as a
process composed from proven practices and procedures.
9. The organization is responsible for providing improvement
opportunities, while individuals are responsible for taking
advantage of them.
10. Since technologies and organizational forms evolve rapidly,
organizations must continually evolve their workforce practices
and develop new workforce competencies.

People CMM Practices: “What, not How”
Practices describe “what” activities and actions should be performed. It
is up to the organization to decide “how” the practices are implemented
to satisfy goals.

delivery, and maintenance process and the process used to
manage and develop the workforce
to monitor changes in technology and deploy it to make the
work efficient

process abilities (competencies) that are adaptable to rapid
changes in a technological environment
an organizational culture that supports a rapidly changing and
potentially volatile market and that is in alignment with policies,
business objectives, and strategies
