I think the book [“Herding Cats: A Primer for Programmers Who Lead Programmers”](https://www.amazon.com/Herding-Cats-Primer-Programmers-Lead/dp/1590590171/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Herding+Cats%3A+A+Primer+for+Programmers+Who+Lead+Programmers&qid=1625036960) is one of the first that you need to read and repeatedly refer to in your daily work.  
Book ideas will help you set up your work and organize your workflow.
