Purpose: To aim of the study was to analyze influence of power dynamics and organizational justice on conflict outcomes and satisfaction Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Research shows power dynamics and organizational justice significantly impact conflict outcomes and satisfaction. Power imbalances exacerbate conflicts, leading to dissatisfaction. Unequal power distribution can escalate conflicts due to perceived unfairness. Conversely, organizational justice fosters positive outcomes and higher satisfaction levels. Fostering equitable power dynamics and promoting justice mitigate conflict and enhance satisfaction. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Social exchange theory, Equity theory & Organizational justice theory may be used to anchor future studies on influence of power dynamics and organizational justice on conflict outcomes and satisfaction. Organizations should prioritize efforts to promote transparent decision-making processes and equitable power distribution to mitigate conflicts and enhance employee satisfaction. Policymakers should advocate for legislation and regulations that promote fairness and equality in organizational practices, including policies related to anti-discrimination, diversity, and inclusion.
