During his tenure as CEO from 1989 to 2008, BB&T grew from $4.5 billion to $152 billion in assets.
Allison was recognized by the Harvard Business Review as one of the top 100 most successful CEOs in the world over the past decade.

He is a former Distinguished Professor of Practice at Wake Forest University School of Business and serves on the Board of Visitors at the business schools at Wake Forest, Duke University and the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.
