About Entelechy

[en-'te-le-key]

NOUN philosophy; [Aristotle] The condition of a thing whose essence is fully actualised; realised potential.

Origins

More than six years ago, we came together on a mission to find a way to help everybody unlock their innate potential.

It began in a hut in a garden in a village called The Slaughters—four people around a table with a big idea guided by one visionary question

What if everyone turned up to work like the CEO?

With expensive life coaching, leaders are given the opportunity to explore Character and how they can use this concept to maximise individual performance.

Imagine the improvement in performance and productivity where everyone’s Character is honed to deliver the best for the organisation. We wanted to deliver this at a price that was accessible to all.

Instead of the CEO being solely focused on being efficient, accountable, responsible, strategic, and visionary… you have everybody. A whole group is pulling in the same direction, and they feel that it is as much down to them as to the leaders.

Our team

United by a passion for helping people to develop their Characters, we are a group of innovators and specialists in our fields.

We level-up leadership to achieve growth by transforming the workforce. We predict the action needed today to deliver the impact you want tomorrow. We drive fast results for powerful returns. We are Entelechy.

Our approach

Entelechy’s assessment is grounded in behavioural science and designed to reflect how character truly develops.

Rather than static scores, we use a dynamic, system that encourages reflection, comparison, and growth. By combining self-insight with peer feedback, and turning results into personalised coaching prompts, our method delivers meaningful, actionable development for individuals and teams.

Grounded in Character Development Research
The Entelechy model is based on a comprehensive understanding of character as a foundation for personal and professional growth. It reflects the latest thinking in behavioural science, developmental psychology, and leadership research.

Numberless, Forced-Choice Assessment Design
Our assessment avoids traditional rating scales, which are often biased or inflated. Instead, it uses a numberless, forced-ranking format that encourages thoughtful comparison and deeper reflection, resulting in more accurate and meaningful insights.

Self and Peer Feedback Integration
The methodology combines self-reflection with optional 180 or 360 feedback to capture both internal perceptions and external observations. This layered approach enhances reliability and self-awareness.

Dynamic and Iterative Profiling
Rather than producing static scores, our profiles are designed to evolve over time. Individuals can revisit their assessments, request new feedback, and track progress—reflecting the ongoing nature of character development.

Personalised Coaching and Development
Each person receives tailored insights and suggested actions based on their unique profile. This makes development relevant, actionable, and focused on real-world application.

Team-Level Intelligence for Culture and Growth
For organisations, aggregated data reveals group-level strengths, gaps, and trends—supporting better decision-making around talent, culture, and performance development.
