Introduction
In spite of the grim picture painted about conflict as an
organizational tremor, this social action can also foster posterity for
business ventures
The Case
.Though there are a colossal number of studies on the effect of organizational
conflict on the performance of employees in many parts of the world, little is
known of this area of research in the Ghanaian setting. The Coca-Cola
Company branch in Kumasi, Ghana faced a problem when the employees were
engaged in conflict in-between themselves, mainly in three bases: the
relationship, task and process conflict. There were both interpersonal and
intrapersonal conflicts in the organization. However, the company thought of a
different strategy to mitigate the conflict and that is by going on with the
conflict itself within the organization as they believed that conflict would bring
out better performance from the employees working in various departments. 5

Solution/Conclusion
It confirmed the assertion that relationship conflict has a negative effect on output of workers.
The Pearson correlation also revealed that whilst relationship conflict adversely affects
performance, both task and process conflicts have a positive influence on output of workers.

the Pearson correlation method brought to view that there is a very weak linkage between all
the three types of organizational conflict and the performance of workers in Coca Cola
Company Limited.
