Section 4: Next Steps & Reflection

  • Identify the Gaps: Look at the largest numbered difference between your Current and Target states. This is where your upskilling focus should lie.

  • Select Your Track: Based on your role, prioritise improving skills in relevant areas:

    • Engineers/Developers: Focus heavily on Capabilities 9 & 10 (Software engineering, cloud infrastructure).

    • Procurement/Finance: Focus on Capabilities 5 & 8 (Vendor evidence, measurement, supply chains).

    • Leaders: Focus on Capabilities 4, 7 & 11 (Governance, culture, business case).

  • Action Plan: Write down 2-3 operational changes you can implement in the next 30 days to begin moving toward your target maturity.
