Abstract

El trabajo tiene como objetivo fundamental el análisis de la relación entre cultura, prácticas de recursos humanos y eficacia. El estudio de la cultura organizativa adolece de acuerdo en lo referente a las formulaciones teóricas referentes al concepto en sí mismo y su posible encaje con la eficacia, por lo que no existe un cuerpo de conocimientos empíricos con validez general. Por ello, el trabajo intentará sistematizar las relaciones entre ambos conceptos, verificándolas en el sector hotelero español y destacando la relevancia que las prácticas de recursos humanos tienen a la hora de explicar la relación.
