Capturing human resources, their capabilities and dynamics can greatly contribute to an efficient and effective organization mission goals accomplishment. In practice however, this is often done in an ad-hoc manner leading to a big gap between the organizational specification model (at the design time) and its instance model (during the life cycle). In this paper we present a generic organizational model that captures the human resources, their operational and strategic capabilities, and adaptive coalition formation. The key elements of the model are capabilities, roles, agents and coalitions. We show how the resulting model can be used for role functionalities and performance control, as well as for capturing the knowledge in context-aware applications which is often present in an implicit manner.
