Dean Gotcher is the founder of the Institution for Authority Research.  He is a researcher, lecturer, and consultant on the subjects of Outcome-Based Education, School to Work, Total Quality Management, and group dynamics.  His background is in education and European history and philosophy.

In his presentation Mr. Gotcher will expose the concepts and theories behind these movements--where they come from, whose ideas they are, and why they are so widely practiced today.  As a Christian, he believes the ultimate authority is God and His Word.  He will share what the Bible says regarding the subject of authority.

We are in the midst of the largest progressive movement this nation has ever experienced.  Respect for the family and the authority of parents is under attack as never before.                                   Dean Gotcher

Mr. Dean Gotcher is the founder and director of the Institution for Authority Research and author of the booklet Dialectic and Praxis: Diaprax and the End of the Ages, explaining the dialectic process which is the foundation of and justification for Goals 2000, Outcome-Based Education, and School to Work.

He is internationally known for his research, and is referenced as a source in many articles and books. He is a consultant to business managers, state legislators, school board members, school administrators, teachers, and Bible-based ministers; as well as a sought-after guest on radio talk shows.

He is the author of the booklet Dialectic and Praxis: Diaprax and the End of the Ages, explaining the dialectic process which is the foundation of and justification for Goals 2000, Outcome-Based Education, and School to Work. He also explains Total Quality Management, consensus, the Delphi technique, group dynamics, cognitive dissonance, paradigm shift, and their roles in restructuring society.

Over the past six years he has held over 1,000 seminars and/or weekend conferences. He shares in his seminars that the main goal of the process and those promoting it is to destroy any overt position of authority, especially parental authority. As a Christian, he believes the ultimate authority is God and His Word. He shares what God has to say to us today regarding the subject of authority and educating our children.

Questions he will address in his presentation include:

Recommendations:

Dean Gotcher is THE expert on the Hegelian dialectic or consensus process at the heart of Total Quality Management and the new global management system. Schools, corporations, community groups, and governments are implementing this manipulative system of teaching, training, monitoring, and managing human resources around the world. To avoid compromise and to equip our children, friends, and families to stand firm in God’s truth, we need to understand the goal and strategies of the consensus process. I don’t believe anyone understands its danger better than Dean. And no one is better equipped to help Christians prepare to resist its subtle and overt pressures to conform to the new global beliefs and values and to become ‘group thinkers.’ I recommend that everyone hear God’s warnings and encouragement through this wise and godly man

– Berit Kjos, author of Brave New Schools

We have the highest regard for his Christian life style and commitment to ministry. He is known as one of the most knowledgeable researchers in the country on the topic of educational psychology and theology. He refutes the modern worldview with authority and responsible research, as well as a solid biblical foundation.

-Lynn & Sarah Leslie, publishers of Christian Conscience magazine
