A stepwise hierarchical cluster and discriminant analysis were conducted to map a joint research agenda. Approaches from Upper Echelons theory and Co-Evolutionary theory of global organizations were adopted.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 Top management teams (TMT) are crucial to manage SCML successfully in today\u2019s global organizations. Research on this intersection should draw attention to find antecedents, consequences and the process showing how those talented people grouped in dispersed teams can be a source of competitive advantage. Six different areas of research are proposed. It is proposed that future research should focus on the human capital (HC); meaning those key individuals of an organization that make things happen. In the near future, the global organization\u2019s competitiveness will be shaped by how the organization manages its HC in SCML. Methodologies such as meta-analysis are suggested to summarize the extant literature on IHRM when applied to SCML in global organizations.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Research limitations\/implications<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 The search was conducted in SSCI-ISIWoK and Scopus databases. As a limitation, some articles and other scientific contributions not abstracted there were not included. Nevertheless, both searches enabled obtaining balanced results between scope and richness of content.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 Only a marginal portion of literature reviews have been conducted by using mixed methods in the fields of IHRM and SCML. The results will be useful for scholars of both fields in their attempts to enlarge the knowledge boundaries in these areas. From a practitioner\u2019s viewpoint, this research may provide an integrative framework for global organizations to build a competitive advantage based on managing HC and its SCML strategically.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/ijpdlm-08-2013-0222","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,10,16]],"date-time":"2014-10-16T09:04:38Z","timestamp":1413450278000},"page":"689-712","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Global organizations and supply chain"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Miguel","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez-Loureiro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Marina","family":"Dabic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Francisco","family":"Puig","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2020122901351111800_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Adler, N.J. and Bartholomew, S.
