My advice is to realize that you are hired as a leader in the organization. Use your leadership to change what needs to change so that the company succeeds. An important factor for the success of the company (as long as you are still hired there) is that you are doing what you love doing and what helps the company, because it'll make a big impact. If you like writing code and write 2 lines of code, it'll raise the morale of the team and get them motivated to work more.

What I am trying to say is assume your leadership and do what you want to be done. If the company likes it, then great. It is a win-win situation. If not, then next steps are clear.
