Becky and George have a conversation with Paul Kimmerly about the observation process of CMMI lead appraisers.  George just went through the observation process and Paul was his observer.  The team discusses why these are done,  common improvement opportunities for new appraisers, what is good about them and what could be improved.

Appraisal activities include "the interview."  What is it for?  Why do it?  How is it done in CMMI appraisals?  How should I prepare for an appraisal interview if I am an interviewee?

Tom and George discuss all of these and more as they unpack this aspect of appraisals.

George, Becky and Tom get together and discuss an idea that GZ has about the CMMI Model - that there are five (well, and maybe 2 or 3 more) practice areas that are more foundational to the model and really shouldn't be skipped over.   Listen in to hear what those practice areas are and the discussion surrounding this topic.
