# Context Management Maturity Model
A framework for assessing how sophisticated an individual, team, or organization is at managing AI context. Combines [[Levels of AI Context Management]] (individual progression) with [[Levels of AI use]] (tool adoption) into a unified maturity view that spans all three layers: [[Personal Context Management (PCM)|PCM]], [[Team Context Management (TCM)|TCM]], and [[Enterprise Context Management (ECM)|ECM]].
## Maturity dimensions
| Dimension | Immature | Mature |
|---|---|---|
| **Context scope** | Ad-hoc prompts per conversation | Structured, persistent context across all interactions |
| **Context lifecycle** | Static, set-and-forget | Actively maintained, reviewed, and evolved |
| **AI memory** | None or built-in only | Managed, curated, and auditable memory systems |
| **Skills and procedures** | Repetitive manual instructions | Codified skills that standardize outputs |
| **Context sharing** | Individual silos | Layered sharing (PCM → TCM → ECM) |
| **Context governance** | No policies | Clear policies on what context AI can access |
| **Feedback loops** | None | Agents learn from outcomes and update context |
## Assessment questions
- Do you repeat yourself to AI? (context persistence)
- Does AI know your goals, not just your current question? (context depth)
- Can a new team member's AI get productive immediately? (TCM maturity)
- Is there an org-wide policy for AI context access? (ECM maturity)
- Do your agents improve their own context over time? (ACE maturity)
