The Consequence Curve is an immutable and inescapable Law of Logical Reality that Conservative leaders routinely ignore at their supporter’s peril, but sadly, yet instructively, rarely their own.
For an IT developer (yes, I’ve written and debugged millions of lines of code), the need to debug a program, process, or system is typically triggered when a negative consequence becomes apparent, whether that be a critical error like a program crash or a report whose values are so obviously wrong that those who rely on the report for decision making raise the alarm.
