In this article, I reflect on my journey in the field of organizational behavior. It was an unplanned journey but one that has lasted more than 50 years and has been incredibly rewarding. I discuss some of the early decisions that were instrumental in my choosing this career and the people and experiences that shaped my research program. I also reflect on some of the changes in the field of organizational behavior that I've noticed over that past five decades and some of the opportunities for scholars to contribute in the years ahead to one of my research areas—the design of jobs. I conclude with a brief discussion of my journey's end.
