Describe where on the dual concerns model you would find the "yielding" strategy and briefly describe the yielding strategy.

What will be an ideal response?


Yielding (also called accommodating or obliging) is the strategy in the upper-left-hand corner. Actors pursuing the yielding strategy show little interest or concern in whether they attain their own outcomes, but they are quite interested in whether the other party attains his or her outcomes. Yielding involves lowering one's own aspirations to "let the other win" and gain what he or she wants. Yielding may seem like a strange strategy to some, but it has its definite advantages in some situations.
