TT Gaskets Strengthens Leadership Skills with Change Management Training in Tampere

As part of its commitment to continuous development and adaptive leadership, TT Gaskets recently conducted a full-day Change Management training session for all supervisors, managers, and HR representatives. The training was held at the Varala Sports Institute (Varalan Urheiluopisto) and delivered by Lecklé HR Lead Oy.

The session was facilitated by Tuomas Tuokkala, Development Manager at Lecklé, who led participants through a structured exploration of how ongoing change affects individuals, teams, and workplace culture as a whole.

In preparation for the training, participants were encouraged to reflect on recent changes within the company, including how these have been experienced and what impact they’ve had. The training itself included interactive group work, focusing on identifying key strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) related to change management at TT Gaskets.

The goal was to generate practical and forward-looking ideas for how to better lead through change, with a strong emphasis on communication, transparency, and shared responsibility across the organization.

”At TT Gaskets, we don’t just adapt to change, we want to guide it with intention and purpose,” said Aleksi Arpiainen, CEO of TT Gaskets.
”This training gave our leadership team a valuable opportunity to reflect, connect, and build the tools we need to lead through transformation more effectively.”

“People are at the heart of everything we do,” added Petri Lehtinen, Business Director at TT Gaskets.
“As a family-owned company, we believe in growing together, and that means investing in our people, supporting their development, and building a culture where collaboration and care are present in every part of the organization.”

One of the clearest takeaways from the session was the importance of keeping teams informed and aligned, especially during periods of intense change. Participants noted that while the company is managing many transitions, improved internal communication can help ensure that no one is left behind.

TT Gaskets extends its thanks to Tuomas Tuokkala for the engaging facilitation and all participants for their active contribution to the discussions and outcomes.

This session is part of a broader effort to ensure that TT Gaskets remains agile, collaborative, and future-ready, even in times of transf
