Thanks for the response. Specific functions I would ideally like to read about: - Organisational psychology - Basic tennents of employment law - Conflict resolution - hiring (specifically post hiring evaluation as it's not always possible to get it right from just an interview)

Basically all of those (except law) sound like things managers deal with and books on people management cover. You could start with Peopleware for one kind of perspective. And then keep looking for lists of books on people management. With most of those: organization psychology, performance reviews, conflict resolution; you get better at them over time as you fail or see other people fail. Or you fail less by hiring experienced managers (or HR professionals) to help you out.

  Thanks again for the response. > you get better at them over time as you fail or see other people fail Yeah thought this might be the case. I’ll give peopleware a try as well.
