- Snowball by Alice Schroeder (it's a biography of Warren Buffett). So many life lessons here (in addition to teaching you a way to think through investing)

- The Goal (and its descendants). Changes the way you look at organizations

- Inner Engineering by Sadhguru [0]. Changes the way you look at yourself. I'd say base some of your life decisions around this and you'll live better

- The little book that builds wealth [1] . No, despite the corny title it's about companies that have managed to build moats around them. If you are / want to be an entrepreneur, I am sure you will get some wonderful ideas from this. My personal favourite (to invest in - Waste management companies :) )

I'm not sure this relates entirely to tech but (to me at-least) it's a way of thinking better:

Algorithms to live by [0] - I am an engineer by training and product manager. I am always on the lookout to improve my knowledge of computer science. This book helps tremendously by showing a way to _look_ at problems. Certainly helps to have a better mental toolkit.

Inner Engineering - A Yogi's guide to joy [1] . Has really helped me get perspective on the issues that matter and how to lead a happier life.

I have been reading up on Physics (Richard Feynmann's books, obviously) and intend to continue this in the quest for better thinking. I do wish I had done this earlier in my life :-( but never too late!

Inner Engineering by Sadhguru. For me it was an unexpectedly transformational when I read it 6 months ago.

Unlike the stoicism books that teach you to condition yourself to be unaffected by external events, this is a method for taking charge of what goes on inside the body and (in my case) in the mind and emotions.

As an aside, if you haven’t tried audiobooks, I would recommend trying. I find that after a while day of staring at the screen I really don’t want to stare at anything else, so my book consumption dropped considerably. With audiobooks I was able to restore it somewhat (and it’s great for filling in lost time during driving).
