engineering-management is a curated list of resources specifically focused on engineering management and technical leadership. Rather than being a generic management reading list, it collects content that speaks directly to leading software teams, managing projects, and supporting engineers’ growth. The materials span topics like one-on-ones, feedback, hiring, performance reviews, culture, strategy, and remote work. The maintainer highlights articles that are short, concrete, and packed with actionable ideas, making it easier for busy managers to learn without wading through entire books first. Many entries come from experienced leaders sharing hard-won lessons, so the list doubles as a mentorship proxy for new managers. It is especially useful for individual contributors transitioning into management, or for existing managers who want to benchmark and refine their practices.
