Currently I'm a in a management position, but just half of my time is people management, and the other half is coding. Until now it has been a great trade off, I wanted to learn an entirely new set of skills, but without leaving all my coding tasks. I'm also able to be involved in more projects than before, through my team, but what I'm personally coding is no more than fixes and small features. Being in position to help others develop is what really makes the people management enjoyable, but I'm sure I wouldn't leave my tech half anytime soon, if ever.
