Synchronous call to ASP.NET WebAPI

Being on older technology stack I was unable to use the Async based code sample for webAPI
so this is my current work around. I am using VS 2010 .NET framework 4.0

public string testapi()
 {
using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
var response = client.GetAsync("http://localhost:3507/api/course").Result;
var result = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
return result;
}
}

Product Management & Marketing: Recipe for Successful Product Development Team

Trust Your Team :
Only trust can hold the team together and supply the everlasting energy to execute at take risk at some courses.

Indecision is  Sin :
Decide and move ahead , come what may. Nothing demotivates like an undecided manager.

Say no to Fear:
Fear is bound to surround in product development as the stakes are high. Let go whatever is holding you back. Drop your doubts worries and fear. Even the failures can be turned around if you are fearless.

Finally the most important ingredient I feel is

Clarity Of Vision
Be crystal clear about your vision only. If the vision is clear to team members they can judge their actions themselves and would save you from petty decisions that waste your time.

Effective delegation :
Delegate and empower your team to take action . Delegate - verify - delegate more. Sure way building accountability .
