McAuley previously served as President and CEO of Nextel Communications for seven years. He also founded Boston-based mobile radio systems operator NeoWorld Communications in 1999, and served as its President and CEO. It was acquired by Nextel for $276 million in 2003.[5]

He is currently chairman of NASDAQ-listed Pacific DataVision, Inc., provider of mobile workforce management solutions.[6]

He is also a director for NYSE-listed United Rentals, Inc.[7] and sits on the board for many non-profits.
