Abstract

The main objective of this research paper to conceptualize a model to test the association between relationship conflicts and employees’ intention to leave with the support of past theories and research findings. This research paper contains the definitions for variables related to relationship conflicts and employees’ intention to leave from the organization and also it explains models which explain the interconnections among two variables. The conceptualization of this research includes a logically developed model that leads to identify the relationships between the independent variable and dependent variable. The proposed model suggested that there is an association between relationship conflicts and employees’ intention to leave.
