Launched in 1989, the Warren S Johnson Society (aka WSJ Society) is named for Warren Seymour Johnson, inventor of the electric room thermostat and the founder of Johnson Controls. The WSJ Society is a social organization of members who share career experiences at Johnson Controls or its subsidiaries.
Mission
The WSJ Society promotes the continuation of friendships established during our years at Johnson Controls through activities such as social gatherings, newsletters, community service projects/programs, and continued learning experiences.
Does that mean you have to know someone to join? Of course not! The WSJ Society is a great group to make new friends. At one time we all shared a Johnson Controls career experience. That’s a start. Let’s build on that, enjoy each other and do some good.

As WSJ Society members, we can bring many years of valuable experience to projects needing our help. Whether it’s building projects or working with the youth or the elderly, teaching or whatever, there are opportunities available to us.
