The term yardstick refers to what is a normal response. It really has nothing to do with a yardstick and can be used in many situations. A yardstick is a measurement that has been tested over and over and than that measurement becomes the standard.
Say the yardstick for a reaction time is 5 seconds
Meaning that is what a normal healthy person can do it in.
Joan has the reaction in 4.8 second. Well she is on the the bell curve and did better than the yardstick test measure.
Hello!
Teamwork is not an important component of resolving conflict. In order to resolve a conflict, the people involved must listen to one another, communicate effectively, and understand each other.
I hope this helps you! Have a lovely day!
