No, if you do not want a management job, you are not a fail.
It is usually the case that if you are good at your work, you rise up to a management position. But that is not always the case. If you are great at your job and like to continue that, nothing wrong with that. Some people are just like that. I do think it is important to be able to communicate and consult with each other about how the work should be done. That way it is always clear what tasks must be done within a time frame..
Horrible managers are people who enjoy the power.
Great managers are people persons who also have a deep understanding of the work they manage. Great managers are people who think ahead and like to avoid pressure and stress as much as possible. Great managers are the oil between the gears (read : the people who execute the work).
