<p>If there’s any one book I wish I had when I started down the leadership path years ago, it’s this one. Anyone who works with data knows how often the “80-20 Rule” or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle">The Pareto Principle</a> appears in analysis. The premise of this book is that 20% of your efforts can yield 80% of your results as a manager and as a company. This book breaks down 10 traits of effective managers: investigating, super connecting, mentoring, leveraged, liberating, seeking meaning, time-rich, simplifying, lazy and strategic and is loaded with anecdotes and practical guidelines on how to be effective for each of them. As a Software Engineer, in order to write quality, scalable code we are trained our entire careers to ‘leave no stone unturned’ and to consider all of the corner cases of our work. When we become managers, if we apply these same instincts, its easy to fall into the trap of considering and trying to be great at all of our work. This book teaches us that not all of our work really matters and helps us hone in on what does.</p>
<p>A great read for software engineers who are, or are becoming managers.</p>

<p>This book so eloquently distills what we all know about ourselves, our relationship to work and what truly motivates us: Autonomy (‘the desire to direct our own lives’), Mastery (‘the urge to make progress and get better at something that matters’) and Purpose (‘the yearning to do what we do in the service of something larger than ourselves’). In no small part due to the recent high-profile tech IPOs (FB, TWTR), acquisitions (Instagram) and valuations (Snapchat), the angel funding and accelerator bubble and subsequent proliferation of startups, everyone is talking about startups and very often, their innovative organizational and management structures. Ultimately, I believe that management structures need to fit the unique cultures of the companies they serve, but if the goal is a happy, engaged, productive team, the principals of this book should be the essence of the approach.</p>

<p>This book has a brilliant premise: The things that made you successful (and likely promoted) are often the very things that will hold you back when you become a leader. Rather than preach to you all the things you should start doing, the author lucidly enumerates all of the things you should stop doing. There is certainly something for everyone in this book as there was for me. It also serves as a wonderful reference book to revisit from time to time.</p>

<p>If nobody is perfect, then one can reason that no company is perfect either. All companies, beloved or loathed by their employees have varying degrees of dysfunction. This book is a fast and easy read and provides an essential vocabulary for identifying and discussing these dysfunctions (absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results), what their consequences are and provides a plan to address them. I have recommended this book more than any other to executives and managers and am yet to find a more effective tool to frame discussions on how to build a better workplace.</p>

<p>Does this book, first published in 1937, need my review? It’s a fast read, pick it up for $2.99 on Kindle and never look back.</p>

<p>Everyone with a family, a brother or sister, mother or father, probably knows what a difficult conversation is. And how many of us have had sleepless nights dreading a difficult conversation or replaying one in our heads? We are not alone. The authors, three esteemed faculty of Harvard Law School, have analyzed hundreds of conversations concluding that the difficult ones fall into the same three categories:</p>
<ul>
<li>The “What Happened” Conversation</li>
<li>The Feelings Conversation</li>
<li>The Identity Conversation</li>
</ul>
<p>This book won’t make difficult conversations go away, but it provides a pragmatic framework for recognizing where your conversations have gone wrong in the past and how to confidently navigate difficult ones in the future.</p>

<p>What make this book interesting is that while I have found it immensely valuable, it was never intended to be, like other similar books I’ve read, a mass appeal how-to book, but rather a textbook used in many MBA leadership courses. What you can expect is an academic treatise on leadership and comprehensive coverage of its various approaches. For me, it provided a great framework for understanding what qualities I admired most of the leaders I respect and helped me understand the essential qualities of the leader I am and want to be.</p>

<p>I adore this book. I am a casual Dilbert fan, if the comic is in front of me, I’ll read it, but I’ve never bought any compilations or merchandise. Scott Adams is a gifted writer and a gift to the unique and endearingly quirky cohort of software engineers I proudly identify with. He effortlessly weaves incredibly practical and pragmatic advice amongst hilarious vignettes of his risks taken and failings had. You’ve likely heard about the importance of hiring candidates who have “passion”, well, Adams has a chapter called “Passion is Bullshit” which I’m sure will generate some controversy. The perspective I gained from his chapters on “Goals vs Systems” and “The Energy Metric” was worth the cost of the book alone.</p>

<p>As a software engineer, the word “negotiate” probably conjures up images of briefcases, board rooms and suits, but the truth is we are constantly negotiating for things. This book has a ton of practical advise on how to navigate our emotions and work effectively with people to seamlessly get us to a win-win.</p>

<p>Similar to Joel Spolsky, the author, Michael Lopp was writing about our unique engineering culture and management in a time when there wasn’t much material out there otherwise (2007). This is a great book for current or aspiring managers, or for those that want to understand what managers do all day.</p>

<p>Written by two Googlers, this wonderful book is not targeted at managers specifically, but software engineers in general, and pivots around the central theme of HRT – Humility, Respect and Trust. Lots of great content around recognizing and embracing our humanity despite how robotic our work often is.</p>

<p>As time goes on, fewer people are familiar with this book, first published in 2004, but they should be. It’s a collection of Joel’s blog posts he started writing in 2000 when the tools and frameworks we used were different, but the characters we encounter and the work we do never really changes, does it? Joel was way ahead of his time with blogging this type of content (think about all the superficial, short-form pieces that makes the HN home page) and a lot of his material is still relevant and great to revisit today. Ever heard of “The Law of Leaky Abstractions”? That was him and you’ll find it in this book.</p>
