According to LUT University, Sykkö will have an impact as a working life professor in the future, especially in Lahti, where there are many textile and furniture industries. Sykö’s know-how is intended to be used, for example, in the development of business cooperation and marketing education.
Sykkö says that he plans to start a series of interviews with top managers, where students will get to hear how business is done.
– In order to reach the young generation, I am becoming Finland’s first Tiktok professor, says Sykkö in the LUT University press release.
In the university world, a working life professor differs from a professor in terms of both his duties and his education.
Sykö’s working life professorship is made possible by cooperative banks in Päijäthämä, which support the professorship with a total of 140,000 euros.
