Great post on an important topic. I've seen it(and done it myself) where devs focus too much on coding when they should instead be leading the their team.

How do you satisfy your urge for coding as a lead? Do you have any hobby projects / have enough coding at work?

so far I am still coding quite a lot, it might be pair programming/mentoring or reviewing and refactoring. Something that is also satisfying is when new projects start and I take care of the architecture design and often set up a basic project with a proof of concept or blueprint so that the devs can go on implementing the features.
