Managing Humans

Haven't gotten to it yet, but good reviews by people I trust. It's the Jerkcity guy, and I've found his series on management to be invaluable in trying to keep the flaming wreckage my career in the air just a little while longer.

Depends on the audience. I held back suggesting it on account of being more oriented towards leadership & project management. Which is great, just maybe not what everyone might find immediate value in.

His blog is definitely awesome. The articles on culture, one-on-ones, and the interview cycle (Resumes, common questions, "2nd interview/test") are tops.
