# The Engineering Manager's Booklist   [![Tweet booklist](https://img.shields.io/twitter/url/https/shields.io.svg?style=social)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=The%20Engineering%20Manager%27s%20Booklist%20%40jesselpalmer%20https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fjesselpalmer%2Fthe-engineering-managers-booklist)

## Introduction

Engineering Management is a pivotal role, but seldomly formally taught. Reading is an effective way of learning from others. You can take bits and pieces of what has worked for other managers and use that information to adjust your management style. This booklist is for people who are or aspire to manage/lead team(s) of software engineers. This includes, but isn't limited to, Team Leads, Tech Leads, Managers, Directors, VPs of Engineering and CTOs. Pull requests are welcome.  

## 👨🏾‍💻 About Me

 [![Follow me on Twitter](https://img.shields.io/badge/Follow%20me%20on%20Twitter-%40jesselpalmer-blue.svg)](https://twitter.com/jesselpalmer)

Hello, thanks for reading! A little about me, I have been an engineering manager at Fortune 100 companies and startups. This list represents the books that I have found valuable in my career. If you want to see what I'm reading checkout my list on [GoodRead's list](https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/39697003-jesse-palmer?shelf=currently-reading). Use the above buttons if you want to hear about my ramblings on engineering leadership.  

## Getting Started

### First book

If you are going to read one book off of this list, I highly recommend the following:

### Book selection

The books or subjects aren't in any particular order so feel free to dive into the topics that you want to learn more about.

### Reading advice

Personally, I prefer audiobooks. They allow me to listen to books while I'm cooking in the kitchen, cleaning up my room, taking a walk around my neighborhood, commuting, etc. Usually, I listen to them at 1.5x to 2x the speed depending on how fast the person narrates the book.

## Feedback

If you have any feedback feel free to fill out this [super quick survey](https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/5PTJNRW). I would love to hear from you!
