It seems to me that if you are a developer that is good with people (and especially if good at coding) that management duties will eventually follow. What I found is that I have to keep pushing my career back to coding daily. The same is true for architectural work. Also, for me at least, I try to code at home to keep my skills up to date. So if it happens to be the case that I am not coding on a particular assignment, that I make sure to keep the skills sharp by coding on side projects at home.
