Introduction to MCPA™

MCPA™ Appreciation of Capability A powerful research-based instrument, drawing on Levels of Work
theory (Gillian Stamp, Elliott Jaques, Owen Jacobs), which looks at 7 complexity bands and their associated management themes
Underlying assumption (Jaques) is that for most adults, capability increases over time, therefore Growth Curves are provided to show assessment of present capability and estimated potential for capability growth
An online and computer-based variant of the full Career Path Appreciation (CPA) developed by Gillian Stamp at Bioss in the UK
Jointly developed by EDAC and Bioss

What do we mean by Capability?
Level 7 Bringing into being current and nascent contexts for future generations
Corporate Prescience
20-50 years
Level 6
Strategic Management Creating and sustaining a climate
to protect strategic units, embed them in host cultures and alert
Corporate Citizenship
10-20 years
Level 5 Ensuring the external and internal viability of the enterprise as a financial and social entity
Strategic Intent
5-10 years
Level 4
Organisational Management Managing current products/
services, systems and practices, and the changes required to align them with the strategic intent
Strategic Development
2-5 years
Level 3
Providing practices and systems to support production or service, to contain costs, realise purpose and enhance reputation
Practice
1-2 years
Level 2 Responding to both the obvious
and underlying complexities of particular situations or people
Service 3-12
months
Level 1
Direct
Management
Making or doing something to a specified output, on which the viability of the organisation depends
Quality From 1 day to 3 months
them to possibilities of evolution

MCPQ™ - Questionnaire
Takes the CPA Phrase Cards - the element of CPA which research has shown accounts for the largest amount of significant unique variance in the overall CPA rating
Presents these in 9 sets of 6 phrases in the MCPQ™ and requires candidates to select their most and least preferred phrases, and give explanations for their choices
Requires candidates to define their personal time horizons

MCPQ™ Phrase Card Contexts
I General principles
II General process
III Overall approach and attitude to rules
IV Approach to each task
V First action on a problem
VI Reaction to uncertainty
VII Reaction to ‘gaps’ in knowledge
VIII Generating a solution
IX General reaction to conflicting results

The MCPQ™ Questionnaire
Available in English, Dutch, German, Swedish, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Europe), French (Ivory Coast) and Chinese
MCPQ™ is completed online
Takes 45-60 minutes to complete
Results emailed automatically to associates for importing into the MCPA™ program

The MCPA™ ProgramThis is not a psychometric instrument
The phrase selections, responses and selection of time frames form the basis of a guided conversation between the counsellor and the candidate that follows the Bioss conventions of appreciative conversation
In this conversation the counsellor uses his or her knowledge of Levels of Work to come to a considered view about a candidate’s:
Current level of work complexity and Current Level of Capability (CLC)
and by relating CLC to age
Likely growth in capability over time or Development Curve

An Appreciative Conversation
“The hallmark of an ‘appreciative conversation’ is that people listen without judgement, do not seek consensus or compromise but share the sole purpose of continuing the conversation in order to sustain relationships of mutual respect.”
Gillian Stamp, 2008

On-screen Validation Interview
Intro to MCPA™ Feb 11 ©2011 EDAC/Bioss All Rights ReservedSlide 11
MCPA™
The counsellor is required to confirm or change the initial computer-generated result according to the outcome of the validation interview, and to record the reasons for doing so
The counsellor may also record the degree to which the candidate is ‘in Flow’

Counsellor Validation & Notes

MCPA™ The program then computes the candidate's position on a series of
age-related development curves
These curves link Current Capability and age to show predicted growth in capability, showing:
Complexity bandThemeDevelopment CurveManagement tasks and responsibilitiesDecision-making Time HorizonTime line - available with a ‘right-click’
Current Capability, Development Curve and Assessed Potential are highlighted

Candidate Time Line
Shows growth in capability over time for the individual being assessed

Flow Chart
If the counsellor has been able to come to an opinion about the candidate’s Level of Work, or if the Candidate has given their perception of Flow, and the relevant details have been entered on the Counsellor Review Screen, these will be presented on the Flow Chart
In the following example the candidate’s Current Level of Capability greatly exceeds the Level of Work of his present role, and he is therefore feeling very much out of ‘Flow’

MCPA™
The program offers a comprehensive report facility, which includes a formal record of the candidate’s responses and the counsellor-determined Development Curve result
It also includes a simple team analysis for summarising group results
Team results can be displayed on Development Curves and projected into the future to show how they will develop over time

MCPA™ Outcomes
Helps candidates understand
Whether or not their capabilities match their current role - if they are in Flow or not
How they should be looking to develop their career paths
The nature of work that is likely to give them the highest level of satisfaction
Intro to MCPA™ Feb 11 ©2011 EDAC/Bioss All Rights ReservedSlide 23
MCPA™ Outcomes
Helps organisations understand
Where their talent lies
Where they are ‘fat’ and where they are ‘thin’ in terms of staffing levels/capabilities/work challenges
With the broader application of Levels of Work, how to develop lean and efficient management structures
Why morale may be poor or performance lagging
