Heder has been with Sprint for more than nine years and prior to his role as director of sales, he led the indirect distribution sales efforts for the Illinois and Wisconsin region.

McCauley has been with Sprint for more than 15 years and has held various positions on the indirect team. Prior to his director role, McCauley developed programs and courses during the launch of the Sprint for Chicago initiative.
