Timeline - Template

Timeline charts presents events and time periods on a chronological scale. They are used in project management to visualize project milestones and upper level phases, and show project progress.
"Time is one of the most critical resources in any project. Good planning spreads the necessary work over a reasonable period of time. This allows everyone to work at a consistent, sustainable pace. Poor planning leaves people stuck and idle, then forces them to scramble to catch up later on. While it does take time to plan ahead, the time ... saved more than make up for it. Good planning is a part of good doing. ...
A Timeline is a clean and concise visual representation of a series of events. It helps you to arrange large chunks of time and see the overall plan easily." [education.rec.ri.cmu.edu/ previews/ nxt_ products/ robotics_ eng_ vol_ 2/ preview/ content/ timeline.pdf]
This timeline template for the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software is included in the Timeline Diagrams solution from the Management area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
