Abstract: The phenomenon of low employee performance due to conflict is the background in this study. The conflict is caused by the power factor that prioritizes the personal ego over the organization. And aims to test and analyze- 1) The effect of positive power on employee performance- 2) The effect of conflict on employee performance- 3) The effect of conflict on employee performance. The unit of analysis of this research is the regional apparatus organization (OPD) who are members of the local government budget team (TAPD) of Kendari City. Respondents as a sample to test the research hypothesis were 131 employees using the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) analysis method. The results show that power has no significant effect on employee performance, power has a significant effect on conflict, conflict has a significant effect on employee performance, conflict acts as a partial mediation linking the variables of power and employee performance. The practical implication of this research is that coercive power is the dominant indicator of the effect of conflict on employee performance.
