The study of the Telos can be summarized in one word: Purpose.  According to Aristotle, the study of teleology is the pursuit of WHY something exists.

At GDI we believe that our purpose drives our desire to accomplish anything we set out to achieve. What is your Telos? What is the Telos of your team? What is the Telos of your business? How about your industry? Through GDI programming we facilitate growth toward that discovery and integration in life and business.

The GDI TELOS comes in the form of growth and contribution to developing the full potential of individuals, teams and organizations. Our approach to this end is fueled by our PASSION for experiential learning - and most often an integration of adventure and business.  Our company President, Tim Walther, along with our committed team have traveled the planet seeking out the answers to questions like, "How does one live to their true potential?"  and "How does one achieve Self-Actualization?" and discovering the characteristics of the Telos.  As a company, we are driven to facilitate the purpose-driven growth and to positively contribute to our world. We seek to equip individuals and teams with the values, beliefs and actions to achieve their highest potential. Our platform is experiential learning and we utilize this science toward achieving this goal.

On a different yet related note, Telos is the name of the GDI Mascot! Telos is a Chocolate Labrador who undoubtedly lives up to his name. Anyone who has had the pleasure of interacting with Telos will realize that the Telos is much about living in the present moment, and living out what we are destined to do.
