Tehollisesti is a Finnish word that translates to "effectively" or "efficiently" in English. It describes a state or action where something produces the desired result with minimal waste of time, effort, or resources. The word can be used in various contexts, from everyday situations to more formal or technical discussions.

In a practical sense, something done tehollisesti achieves its purpose. For example, a plan that is implemented tehollisesti will lead to the intended outcome without unnecessary complications or delays. Similarly, a person working tehollisesti will accomplish their tasks promptly and with high quality. The concept emphasizes both the achievement of goals and the judicious use of means to reach them.

The adverbial form, tehollisesti, modifies verbs to indicate the manner in which an action is performed. It suggests a deliberate and skillful approach. For instance, "hän ratkaisi ongelman tehollisesti" means "he solved the problem effectively."
