## Resource

In this episode, Jason dives into how optimizing systems continuously uncovers new constraints, using the Super PM Bootcamp as a real-world example. He explains that even highly standardized processes will reveal new bottlenecks as improvements are implemented, following the law of bottlenecks described by Nicholas Modig and Eli Goldratt. What you'll learn in this episode: How standardization in training and processes uncovers new bottlenecks. Why identifying one constraint leads to discovering the next. The role of tools, pre-planning, and team orientation in system optimization. How continuous improvement keeps high-performing systems evolving. Why even mature programs like Super PM Bootcamp continue to find opportunities for growth. Are you optimizing your systems effectively or missing the hidden constraints that could elevate your team to the next level?
