I wish I had a good book to recommend, but I don't. There's about a billion of them out there, most of them written by people who didn't have to actually do it.
However I can suggest this. I never met a person that wanted to be "managed". Almost all will want good leadership, clear objectives, and guidance on how to achieve them. But employees will come in various forms. Some will be superstars that need very little guidance or input from you. And some will be rocks that need constant feedback and supervision of their work. And there will be all types in between. In my experience, a one size fits all approach just doesn't work for every employee, and you have to figure out who your employees are so that you can lead them and maximize your groups objectives. I went through a management training course once to shake out these principles, but for the life of me I can't remember who wrote them so that I could send it to you.
But the theory is that if you try and give the same amount of management and supervision to the superstar as the rock, either the superstar chafes under it or the rock fails.
The best advise I got in the navy was that "you lead people and you manage operations". Never forgetting that helped me quite a bit in my career.
