You may know him from his “wireless revolution” commercial on TV. But on Thursday, June 5, more than 200 members of the Potomac Officers Club and their guests had the opportunity to see Sprint CEO Dan Hesse up close and in person. Sponsored by Hogan & Hartson, the intimate luncheon kicked off with a few words of introduction by Jim Garrettson, founder and president of Potomac Officers Club.
