Introduction to People CMM®
While we accept that most of today’s service and knowledge businesses are talent driven and that people are our biggest assets, organizations often struggle to develop and implement a holistic human capital management strategy that delivers on this belief.
In fact, the current global hue-and-cry on talent shortfalls and high attrition rates in IT, BPO and other industries are only a tip of the iceberg. At the business level, there are imperatives like improving productivity, moving-up the value chain, enhancing competitiveness and getting closer to the customers. At the organization level, issues like managing a multi-cultural and multi-geography workforce, managing rapid growth, developing careers and creating “cool” work cultures continue to take a large mind-share of business leaders and HR professionals.
It is not enough to just win the “Talent Wars”. Its also not enough to try HR/organizational solutions (like Business Process Reengineering, Employee Stock Options, Assessment Centers and 360-degre appraisals) in a piece-meal manner. Instead, the need of the hour is to take a holistic view of the organization’s business, culture, technology and talent needs. And adapt human capital solutions based on an integrated and proactive approach towards developing & engaging talent, growing the business and delighting the customers.

People-CMM® Process Areas
Each maturity level of the People CMM®, with the exception of the Initial Level, consists of three to seven Process Areas. Each Process Area (PA) identifies a cluster of related practices that, when performed collectively, achieve a set of goals considered important for enhancing workforce capability. The process areas at each level of maturity create an inter-linked system of processes that transform the organization’s capability for managing its workforce.
Workshop Format
The workshop deploys an effective mix of instructor-lead presentations/lectures, case-studies and team exercises by the participants. Participants are encouraged to discuss specific issues facing their organizations, and seek solutions from instructor and peer group.
