- The Art of Leadership by Michael Lopp (aka Rands of Rands in Repose fame)
Which tackles situations he encountered (and are all too familiar) while managing in various roles at Apple, Netscape and Slack.
- The Engineering Leader by Cate Hudson
What I think is absolutely great about this book is that it isn't just about how to deal with the people you are responsible for but also how to deal with _yourself_
- The Engineering Executive's Primer By Will Larson
This one is meant more for "Head of Engineering" types, but still contains tons of handy information to turn yourself into a effective leader.
And last but not least:
- Become an Effective Software Engineering Manager by James Stanier
Subtitle of this book says it all. Highly recommended!
