If you have to explain that to your boss, you are working for the wrong person. We are in a creative field, he shouldn't have to be explained this.

As long as they are willing to learn, I think that's fine.

I like to make parallels with sports: when I am on the court, I am so much dumber about what's going on. Suddenly, when I am on the sidelines, I can see patterns, strengths and weaknesses for each team and so forth. It's not that I was dumb while on the court, it's just that your brain is in a different mode of operation (focusing on your own performance in this particular case).
