Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink
Dont look for excuses, take responsibility.
12 rules for life, an antidote to chaos by Jordan Peterson
Open mind learns faster and achieves bigger things in teams.
Discrimination and disparities by Thomas Sowell
Measure when you can. Statistics are used to manipulate us. Guessing and listening to those who feed us statistics is often worse than doing nothing.
I've read all of these, and I second the recommendations.
The most "extreme" part of the Extreme Ownership book was when some of Mr. Willinck's people died in an operation for which he was the commander.
He decided in his report to the higher ups that he should be the fall guy, and take full responsibility for their deaths.
It's heavy stuff, and the message for your work is sobering, even chilling. But it's fascinating and easy to read.
Development in my opinion is just learning how to use a tool, but learning how to use life is what can really shape careers.
Thanks for sharing!
Your Welcome, do go through them and let me know, i would love to discuss your findings.

The Phoenix Project
Domain Driven Design by Eric Evans as well as all of Vaughn Vernon's followup books have probably had the biggest impact for me. Otherwise I second just about everything on this list, particularly Code Complete.
Pragmatic Programmer, code complete, working effectively with legacy code, managing humans, the manager's path, debugging teams, turn the ship around, the Phoenix project, and the advantage all come to mind.
Solid books! I have the Phoenix project myself too!
