In my own experience, mostly working in cutting edge projects, good techies dont need someone to hold their hand but rather they need someone who can see both the bigger picture and the deeper picture.
I have seen too many teams running circles around their manager - who even though had great management skills, did not understand the technical details well.
If "management duties" are taking up too much time, then they are doing something wrong.
