Collective intelligence v/s individual excellence

Featured Replies

I was musing as to whether team sports like soccer or individual sports like chess define "intelligence" better.

 

The former requires better co-ordination and "team-spirit". (if any such thing exists, plausibly) and the latter sheer grit.

 

How does our nervous system handle these scenarios? Are they analogous or not?

 

Any pointers on this.

 

Thanks in advance.
