aprendizaje organizativo, capital humano, competitividad empresarial, creación de valorResumen
Dentro de la literatura de Gestión Estratégica de Recursos Humanos muy pocos trabajos abordan cómo los sistemas de gestión de recursos humanos contribuyen a la creación de valor organizativo. En otras palabras, conocemos muy poco sobre los procesos que tienen lugar en la «caja negra» de la empresa entre la gestión de recursos humanos y los resultados organizativos.
Sin embargo, la Gestión Estratégica de Recursos Humanos podría encontrar importantes sinergias y complementariedades con la literatura de Aprendizaje Organizativo y Capital Intelectual. Es decir, el eslabón perdido que ayude a comprender cómo la empresa puede crear y desarrollar sus recursos basados en el conocimiento –por ejemplo, el capital humano– a partir de ciertas configuraciones o arquitecturas de prácticas de recursos humanos y cómo estos recursos, a su vez, contribuyen a la creación de valor para la empresa.
En este contexto, se presenta un marco teórico que integra las aportaciones de estos enfoques y perspectivas, sirviendo de eslabón entre la Gestión de Recursos Humanos y la obtención de una ventaja competitiva para la empresa.
