As a manager, I make a point to produce some code that makes it into production every quarter, but my reason for that is not because I can't help myself from writing code. Rather, I want to understand the pain of the sdlc. I want to understand firsthand how long it takes to get something deployed and how many steps it takes. Being able to empathize, rather than just sympathize, with my direct reports has made me a better manager.
