Readiness is the degree to which an individual, team, or organization is prepared to perform effectively. At the organizational and team levels, readiness has to do with shared values, mission, strategy, goals, customer needs, competitive landscape, resources, leadership, budgets, support functions, and more. At an individual level, readiness applies to the behaviors and capabilities required to achieve the person’s specific objectives. An individual can use the model to determine which behaviors and capabilities they should be developing.
