"Good Strategy / Bad Strategy" by Richard Rumelt - An awesome book on strategy, which explains very plainly how to construct a reasonable strategy, and see signs of bad strategy. It (among other things) dissects NVIDIA's rise in the late 2000's, and predicts (more or less) the next ten years of where the company went.
"The Effective Manager" by Mark Horstman - All the things that no one says or tells about management and communication.
"Team Topologies" by Skelton and Pais - A really good view of organizational design patterns and anti-patterns for software teams rooted in the premise of Conway's Law.
Second "The Effective Manager", that's one of the best management books I have ever read - and one of the very few totally practical ones. It also gave me a significant head start in managerial life because most of the people above me have no idea how to do any of the things clearly laid out in this book.
