The document discusses the People Capability Maturity Model (PCMM) which provides a framework to help organizations improve their processes for managing their workforces. The PCMM has five levels of maturity: 1) Initial, 2) Managed, 3) Defined, 4) Predictable, and 5) Optimizing. Each level builds upon the previous one and represents increased process discipline, organizational competency, and continuous process improvement in human resource practices and workforce management. The PCMM is designed to help organizations address critical people issues, integrate workforce development with process improvement, and become an employer of choice.
