520 _aSoftware project managers face the same challenges as managers in other industries and disciplines. For example, they must keep their teams motivated, cost justify their strategies, beat deadlines, and balance budgets. These issues are even more challenging in the world of software development, where technologies, terms, and processes shift rapidly. This book explains the latest management strategies and techniques in software development and provides managers with the necessary background and keen insight to plan and execute a successful software project.
