There are many books that are relevant to CTOs. But your time is limited so you can only read the best books.
I created a list of books for CTOs to read. The list is surpising and not about technology!
Not only to I list the books but explain why you should read them and what I especially liked about them.
Subscribe to the newsletter for CTOs and engineering managers and I will send you the list with books. You can subscribe any time.
