Abstract:

Ross Johnson took over as CEO of RJR Nabisco in Winston-Salem in January 1986. He restructured RJR, the largest company headquartered in the South, and moved it to Atlanta, after a one hundred and eleven year stay in Winston-Salem. The move did not endear him to residents of North Carolina. For this decision Johnson was named BUSINESS NORTH CAROLINA magazine's Mover and Shaker of the Year.
