Ask HN: Recommendation for Management Books

3 pointsby yi_xuanover 2 years ago
I have been a developer for years, nowadays I want to learn some knowledge about management. I think a developer has definitely to learn some things around him, knowing more than just coding, such as management.<p>You can recommend books that improved you or made you impressed, not limited to IT field, all kinds of management is fine.

FWIW, &quot;management&quot; is a pretty big topic. You&#x27;ve got everything from &quot;strategic management&quot; to &quot;financial management&quot; to &quot;marketing management&quot; to &quot;product management&quot; to &quot;organization design&quot; to the day-to-day &quot;stuff&quot; that middle managers do, which can vary a lot depending on what function (marketing, finance, HR, engineering, IT, etc) they work within, etc.<p>So a good answer depends a bit on what you&#x27;re specifically interested in. But for a taste of things mostly at the tactical level, you might find value in something like:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;First-Time-Manager-Jim-McCormick-ebook&#x2F;dp&#x2F;B07C66KTSD&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;First-Time-Manager-Jim-McCormick-eboo...</a><p>or<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Making-Manager-What-Everyone-Looks&#x2F;dp&#x2F;0735219567" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Making-Manager-What-Everyone-Looks&#x2F;dp...</a>
