No, good boss is who can understand you and can make understand himself to you. 

Talents are specified to skills only which are limited, but understanding is vast.

Business entities are not aimed to be stagnant so is the case with talent. As entities have to grow so is the talent which has to be developed by creating opportunities for learning and setting examples to follow. That's the role of the manager ( so called bosses) who have to manage and develop manpower and the other resources for the growing demand of the future to meet business growths.

Yes good managers pace up this effectively and efficiently, identify and ignite every available talent / potential to meet goals and develop it for meeting future requirements.

If you're a boss and trust that an individual will be diligent, worry not! ;)
