Essi Ryymin

Educator, Learning Expert and Coach from Finland

Hey there! I'm Essi Ryymin, an Educator, Learning Expert and Coach living in Finland. I work as a Principal Research Scientist at Häme University of Applied Sciences, School of Professional Teacher Education, and I'm curious about continuous learning at work, digitalisation and educational innovations.  Currently, I lead R&D team of Future Work.

As a Solution-Focused Coach I'm also interested in how to inspire, manage and lead optimal performance and learning in working communities. In my doctoral research, I found out how important growth-empowering relations and smart use of technologies are to our professional development in the world of work.

I work internationally across diverse industries and I like to benchmark influential education practices globally. I'm a co-founder of Global Education R&D and contribute especially to educational capacity building programmes of LAC countries (Latin America and the Caribbean) and Central Asia.

I believe that engaging learning includes it all: knowing, doing, being - and playing. Let's link up!
