The Unicorn Project

Came here to recommend this. Also the book, "The Unicorn Project" is the SW Dev side of the Phoenix Project.

I started listening to "The Unicorn Project" on audiobook. It is not as good as "The Phoenix Project" audiobook, but it does a decent job of describing problems from the software engineer's perspective. The problem is I need a version of these books from Sarah Molton/Steve Master's point of view (a novel about being a product manager or CEO?) to better understand what motivates that side of the org. I have been mired in "The Core Chronic Conflict" for years, paying down tech debt, and turns out changing an org to learn/understand/care about DevOps is Hard.

Another vote for "The Phoenix Project" and "The Unicorn Project". Both of those books are technically fiction but they are incredibly insightful into what goes all around coding and how to optimize those processes. The characters are very engaging and I found myself relating and taking ideas to improve my work/organization!

The Unicorn Project, The 7 habits of highly effective people by Stephen Covey, Permanent Record, Turn the ship around, The Checklist Manifesto, These are good ones!

The Pheonix Project and The Unicorn Project are two good audiobooks centred around Devops and Software Development.

When managing people in tech, I think it is equally as important to know how to organize as it is to know how to lead. I would recommend "The Phoenix Project" and "The Unicorn Project" and "The Goal" to all tech managers. No matter how good your communication/leadership skills are, your team will be severely handicapped if they are working in an inefficient/limiting environment. Coming at the same lessons from a different perspective, I have also found "Turn The Ship Around!" to be a very good resource.
