During his time at AT&T he led the company through a profound reinvention and transformation prior to completing the merger of AT&T Corp. and SBC Communications in November 2005.

As the youngest CEO ever of a Bell operating company, Dave helped eventually to facilitate its sale to SBC Communications.

By 1990, he became president of Sprint Business, with 10,000 employees, and grew the company’s revenues from $5 million to $4.5 billion.
