Thanks for your advice, it's very meaningful to me to get any sort of guidance on this issue. Management isn't something I've ever really considered. A large part of me has always wanted to "stick my hands in the mud", and truly be one of the people that "built something". Not to denigrate managers in any way, they absolutely are important and contribute to a project, but they work at a level I never really wanted to. I suppose I should give it a try though, and see if I like it.
I do know that I am not very good at leadership stuff, from how my yearlong project in my university has gone. I don't quite understand politics or people much in general, and on top of that, I don't really get how to efficiently distribute work, maintain a big picture view of a project, or steer things in general.
