"Software engineering at Google" (O'Reilley) has a lot of "team focused" advice also, it's overall pretty non-technical but generally a good read. Free to read online too https://abseil.io/resources/swe-book

I've read through half of it as well. I think it's pretty good but poorly edited somehow because of how long it's taken me to get through even just the first half. So ultimately I don't think it will break my top list even when I finish it.
