Both.
It is so hard for me to have my boss just sit back and do nothing especially when I know that he's/she's super smart. I like to have a little bit of both in a boss. He/She shouldn't be a micro-manager that's for sure. Every now and then a little input and him/her doing a project here and there wouldn't hurt. It let's your employees know that you're not a lazy *** that's just collecting a big paycheck.

Some bosses don't know their heads from a whole in the ground. Hands off!

Hmmm, I guess in theory the sargaent should be in the trenches with his troops.
In reality, many managers were promoted as an alternative to firing, since they couldn't adequately perform on the job. Those who can't do, teach. All that rot.
Speaking literally, my boss puts his hands on me, s/he finds out what five broken fingers feels like.

If employees are heads down, then bosses are hands on.
If employees are heads up, bosses keep hands off.

I think each style is appropriate in particular circumstances. I do believe that the boss should be clear about his/her particular style so the underlings know what to expect.
