Come to think of it, I think there was something in their relationship that we might now call "development." There is the anecdote about how Steve "tricked" Woz into cutting down the number of chips to win a prize at Atari. Woz did the work, but it was probably Steve pushing him that made him consider it possible in the first place.
Although Steve had ulterior motives, this doesn't seem too different than what we would say now of managers who were good at developing their employees.
