                       Thursday, December 8, 2016

  Mr. RYAN of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Youngstown, 
Ohio, native Eric Spiegel, CEO of Siemens USA, and congratulate him on 
his retirement. Mr. Spiegel has worked at Siemens for seven years, 
where he has been able to grow the company and further its reputation 
within the United States. As CEO he has shown tremendous leadership as 
he contributed to our country's economic, manufacturing, and innovation 
engines.
  While serving as President and CEO of Siemens USA, Mr. Spiegel 
focused on electrification, automation, and digitalization. Siemens USA 
is represented in all 50 states.
  Before joining the Siemens USA team, Mr. Spiegel gained 25 years of 
experience working with many complex organizations during his time in 
the consulting field and served as the Managing Director of Booz Allen 
Hamilton International from 1999-2003, while living in Tokyo. Mr. 
Spiegel managed the firm's business in Asia, Latin America, and in the 
Middle East in his role as Managing Director. Mr. Spiegel was a member 
of the Board of Directors for Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc. and remained a 
senior partner of Booz & Company's Global Energy, Chemicals and Power 
until taking on his position at Siemens USA.
  Before Mr. Spiegel began his successful career, he earned an MBA from 
the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College and an A.B. with 
Honors in Economics from Harvard University. He remains a member of The 
Board of Overseers at Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business.
  Mr. Spiegel has given back to the Washington, DC communities in many 
ways, one being his dedication to Ford's Theatre as a member of its 
Executive Committee. Mr. Spiegel's accomplishments are many; including 
his position as a member of the Business Roundtable, the U.S. Chamber 
of Commerce, and the Electrification Coalition.
  I wish Mr. Spiegel a happy retirement, and will continue to admire 
his accomplished career.
