I highly recommend Being Geek by Michael Lopp. He went through a similar transition and has some very good insight and practices to follow for effective leadership. A lot of it comes from the low-level programmer perspective, but he talks a lot as well about managing developers.
Does anyone have questions about how the material gets from the jet to the product and sets in zero-gravity? Seems to me there would be some issues with a finished product if precision is key (and it happens to be paramount in most everything NASA does). Thoughts?
