One book I found very valuable (and discovered on another HN thread) was Gerald Weinberg's "Secrets of Consulting." That book generated lots of good ideas. If you pause at the publication date, don't. You'd be shocked how little this stuff changes, until you realize (as Weinberg explains) it's always a people problem, and people haven't changed.
I also recommend Patrick's recent podcasts/interviews on the subject.
