Very good introduction to technical management
Easy book to listen to. The techniques recommended are great tools for any new technical manager. I recommend this book for anyone working in technology regardless of management experience.

Great content, average naration
I've recently started as a Tech Lead and I was recommended this book, I'd also recommend it to others.
There are a few chapters you can skip but the relevant ones are valuable. This book isn't a cure-all, but it might help you identify some areas to improve, like it has for me.
Don't let the narration put you off - there's a lot of great content in here for new tech managers and I'm really glad it's in audiobook format because otherwise I'd have taken longer to read it. I found the easiest way to read was to have the speed set to 1.4-1.5x.

Wonderful book from the perspective of a well experienced leader
I found this book a wonderful resource of potential and proven approaches and perspective. Although I would suggest to the reader to use this as a resource for these things rather than an absolute guide.
But all in all a wonderful resource.
