For anyone interested in the way people respond to consequences, this site sets out the Consequence Horizon Model and the ideas behind it. The aim is to explain the pattern in a clear and practical way. You will see it in money, health, work, family life and organisational behaviour. It is something most people recognise once it is pointed out. I will add more material over time as the model develops.
 

I am M Sheldon. My background is in high court enforcement, risk, governance and financial behaviour. Much of my career has involved working with people at the point where consequences become real. The model grew from that experience and from seeing the same behaviour play out across different situations.
 

This site is the first place the model is published. It is for learning, reflection and research. If you have questions or want to discuss the material, feel free to get in touch through the contact form.
