5 Management Essentials

This session shows team leads and team members how Visual Studio 2005 Team System helps estimate time and costs; plan and schedule the effort; and track, report, and correct as the project runs.

 Listen to the audio and watch the slides! (Running time: 1 hour, 3 minutes) Does your project use VB.NET or C#? Chances are, your customers don't know and don't care.

This session shows team leads and team members how Visual Studio Team System helps them in the three key resource management activities: estimating time and costs; planning and scheduling the effort; and tracking, reporting, and correcting as the project runs.
