Sinopsis

La obra analiza la relación entre empleabilidad y valoración empresarial en el sector de bares y restaurantes, partiendo de la premisa de que el talento humano constituye un activo estratégico para la creación de valor sostenible. A través de un enfoque metodológico mixto que integra análisis bibliométrico y revisión sistemática de literatura científica indexada en Scopus (2019–2023), el libro examina la evolución conceptual de ambos términos, sus dimensiones, indicadores y puntos de convergencia teórica.

El estudio evidencia un crecimiento significativo del interés académico en torno a la empleabilidad y su impacto en el desempeño organizacional, destacando la necesidad de superar enfoques tradicionales centrados exclusivamente en variables financieras para incorporar factores intangibles como reputación, sostenibilidad, liderazgo y gestión del talento. En el contexto específico del sector gastronómico —caracterizado por alta rotación, digitalización acelerada y exigencias de sostenibilidad— la empleabilidad se configura como un mecanismo de adaptación estratégica que influye directamente en la calidad del servicio, la experiencia del cliente y la percepción del valor empresarial.

La obra concluye proponiendo un marco analítico integrador que vincula sistemas de gestión humana con resultados de negocio, planteando la empleabilidad como política de creación de valor compartido y como eje articulador de sostenibilidad y competitividad sectorial.
