While CCPM effectively manages flow, it assumes the project team is already aligned, capable, and collaborative. In practice, the human side of projects is often the hidden constraint. Misaligned team composition, poor communication, and limited learning during execution can stall performance—regardless of how well the schedule is managed.

This session introduces an evolved CCPM approach by integrating Doug Wilde’s Teamology, which builds cognitively diverse teams using Jungian typology, and embedding structured peer learning into project flow. This aligns with TOC’s core principle: focus on the real constraint to improve throughput.

A proposed pilot will be shared, comparing a standard CCPM team with one using the A-Team framework: Teamology-informed team design, a co-created team charter, learning rituals such as feedback circles and “hotseats,” and psychological safety checks. The goal is not just faster delivery, but smarter, self-improving teams.

Attendees will leave with a simple, replicable framework for building A-Teams:

How to use typology to design better teams

How to embed learning rituals into project cycles

How to measure team functioning alongside buffer burn

How evolving CCPM in this way can dramatically boost project velocity and long-term team effectiveness
