One book that really helped advance my understanding of how a company works was The Startup Owner's Manual
If you don't want to read the book, there's a great course on Udacity based on it called How to Build a Startup.
I'd also add a book Elon Musk was recently talking about called 12 Against the Gods. It's written by a South African journalist in the 30s who likes to overcomplicate thinks for the sake of being fancy, however if you can stomach that style (even just the intro) it makes a very good point.
