Styczeń was instrumental in obtaining funds for and organizing the construction of the Sokól headquarters in Kraków, which opened up in November 1889 on Wolska Street.

Under his leadership the athletic organization expanded to include, in addition to gymnastics, fencing, rowing, horse riding and cycling.

In 1894 the Kraków members participated in a national athletic exhibition in Lwów, and in June 1896 Styczeń helped to organize a three-day tournament and rally of the club with representatives from Galicia, Greater Poland, Czech lands and the United States.

He served in the economic and legal departments and from 1891 he headed the commission to "attract foreign visitors to the city of Kraków and its surroundings".

He was deeply concerned with improving the aesthetics of the city and in November 1896 he was invited by Stanisław Krzyżanowski to join the Society of Appreciation of the History and Monuments of Kraków.

He was involved in charitable work, as a member of the Arcybractwa Miłosierdzia i Banku Pobożnego (the "Arch-brothers of Mercy and of the Pious Bank").
