Modern Books for Software Engineering Managers
The main goal of this article is to share the list of books that are worth reading and practical for the Software Engineering Manager role or similar, where the mix of technical skills and people management comes into play. There are many interesting books, but I would like to emphasize those published over the last few years. Our industry evolves very quickly. Classic books may still be good and valuable, but considering time limits, modern technologies, and approaches, it’s better to start with something as practical as possible to get up to speed. Last but not least, I saw so many threads on Twitter where various folks promoted “curated lists of books” without reading a page of any of them. Yes, I read all the mentioned books and even more
