This is a fantastic question that doesn’t get asked enough by new managers. Great to see you’re actively trying to build the management skill set!

Manager Tools is great for the “nuts and bolts” of management, regardless of industry. They have a book and paid membership, but start with the podcast hall of fame/HOF episodes to see if their methodology works for you: https://www.manager-tools.com/all-podcasts?field_content_dom...

More engineering-specific, The Manager’s Path (book) is fantastic.

Radical Candor (book) is excellent when working out how to build relationships, coach and communicate effectively with your team.

If you’re working in a multicultural environment The Culture Map (book) is very helpful.

I’d also recommend joining this Slack community to find a wealth of wisdom from experienced engineering managers, and to share your journey with other newcomers: https://engmanagers.github.io/

Good luck, and welcome aboard!
