| dbo:abstract | Stig Herman Hästö (19 March 1918 – 14 September 1997) was a Finnish jurist, businessman and vuorineuvos. Hästö was born in Pori, but his family moved to Viipuri soon after. After the early death of his father, his mother worked hard as an entrepreneur to provide for her family. The Second World War interrupted Hästö's studies; he was wounded in the Karelian isthmus in 1944. He graduated as jurist in 1946. Hästö worked as delegate for employers' association STK in 1948–1957. In 1957 Hästö started working for the textile company Finlayson and became the company manager in 1962. Despite the board's resistance to change, he modernized the company to meet the challenges of free trade. New problems came during recession in the 1970s. Hästö left Finlayson and went again to work for the employers' association in 1979, when he was selected manager of TKL. While the work was easy due to good times, Hästö fell in an uncomfortable situation during presidential elections of 1982, when a large part of the association supported Ahti Karjalainen for president, while Hästö tried to remain neutral. Hästö retired in 1983 after which he worked in some international positions of trust and foreign trade. For instance, his trip to Atlanta during this time helped establish a foothold for Finnish companies to get established there, especially in the pulp and paper industry. He wrote his memoirs and a book about summer 1944 in Viipuri. (en) Stig Herman Hästö, född 13 september 1918 i Björneborg, död 14 september 1997 i Esbo, var en finländsk industriman. Hästö,som var son till direktör Mats Herman Hästö och Ellen Johanna Grönroos, avlade högre rättsexamen 1946 samt blev juris kandidat 1948 och vicehäradshövding samma år. Han var advokatbiträde 1946–1947, notarie 1947, anställd vid Finska metallindustrins arbetsgivareförbund 1948–1957 och kom därefter till Oy Finlayson Ab, där han var verkställande direktör 1962–1979. Under denna tid expanderade bolaget till en början kraftigt bland annat genom fusioner, men på 1970-talet råkade bomullsindustrin in i en kris, som han dock lyckades rida ut. Han var ordförande i Arbetsgivarnas i Finland centralförbund 1977–1979 och verkställande direktör i Industrins centralförbund 1979–1983. Hästö utgav memoarerna Från Pehrsgatan 6 till Champs Elysées (1987). Boken Farväl Wiborg. Minnen och verklighet då Wiborgs öde beseglades (1989) handlar om den 20 juni 1944, då hans gamla hemstad föll i ryssarnas händer, med insprängda personliga minnen från de föregående decennierna. Han tilldelades bergsråds titel 1970. (sv) |
