Popis: | Since value in today's economy is increasingly driven by employees as opposed to hard assets (Zimmerman, p. 32), managing employees and their ideas is now a cornerstone of competitive advantage. To effectively manage these value-driving elements, organizations must be able to accurately measure them. To measure them, the authors collected data from twenty-one interviews with human resources professionals in the hospitality industry, attempting to define human capital in this economic sector. Findings uncovered three main hospitality-specific human capital (HHC) components: service-oriented employees, empowered employees, and committed employees. A process model maps organizational mission, strategic objectives, and specific managerial activities that increase the value of HHC and drive value to the bottom line. |
