This issue comprises the inaugural IRIOP Annual Review Issue, following the incorporation of the International Review of Industrial and Organizational Psychology (IRIOP) into the Journal of Organizational Behavior (JOB). In this editorial, we explain our rationale for transforming the IRIOP series from a long-established, highly successful invitation-only edited volume to a double-blind, peer reviewed issue of the JOB, and outline our vision for its continuing development as the leading outlet for the publication of critical, state-of-the-art overviews and commentary on established knowledge and developments at the forefront of the field. In so doing, we clarify the sorts of contributions we are looking to publish, exemplified by the seven papers appearing in this first issue. Copyright (c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
