Hi,

I'm starting a new job in a few weeks and I haven't jumped ship in about a decade. I'm looking for recommendations of books, articles, and frameworks that can help me prepare. I'm in a leadership position and will need to develop a plan and strategy. Looking for general resources or they could be specific to tech product management. Thanks for any suggestions!

I get it all depends on timing but still weird directly using Delta Skymiles on its own Delta route is more expensive than going through other methods....
