On Becoming a Technical Leader by Gerald M. Weinberg
The title is a deliberate play on
OnBecomingaLeader by
WarrenBennis. Jerry talks a lot about how one leads from a technical position, with his usual clarity. Also a strong bias toward seeing the work situation as a system, and an emphasis on individuals.
The book deserves mention because it's definition of leadership is as compelling as
DeMarco's from
PeopleWare: "A leader creates a context in which others can succeed."
