    The martial arts maxim sounds backward to me. Isn't it that the improved performance of an individual in a group improves the overall performance of the group?

    I don't think so. I think it is the collective effort of the group that pushes each individual. When I have studied, and there is only one senior person, that person does lead, but they don't lead as hard, or work as hard, if they rest of the class is not pushing them.
