This repository is a curated collection of articles, books, videos, podcasts, and other resources about engineering management and technical leadership. It is not a piece of software you run, it is a reference list for people who manage software engineers or who are transitioning into that role. The collection is organized into dozens of topic sections covering the full breadth of what engineering managers deal with day to day. Sections include one-on-one meetings, hiring and interviewing, feedback, performance management, career ladders, delegation, conflict resolution, onboarding, organizational structure, remote teams, and many others. Each entry is tagged to indicate its format, such as whether it is a book, video, presentation, or podcast. The book section opens with a strong recommendation for "Turn the Ship Around!" by L. David Marquet, a true story about a US Navy submarine commander who restructured his crew around giving decision authority to the people closest to the information rather than centralizing it at the top. The list author considers it the best management book available and explains why in a short summary. Other recommended books cover topics like organizational health, managing technical people, and what motivates people at work. Beyond books, the list links to newsletters, blogs, and podcasts that publishing new management content regularly, useful for staying current after you have read the foundational material. The list is maintained by a single curator and reflects personal experience and opinion rather than claiming to be exhaustive. The shell language label reflects minor tooling around the table-of-contents generator, not that this is a shell scripting project. The full README is longer than what was shown.
