Between what we believe and what we do, there’s a gap. Pineapple Lampshade brings people and teams into the conversations, experiences, and practices that help them cross it.
Dr. June Cara Christian
Our method: Reflect / Evaluate / Act / Learn
The meeting you replay. The conversation nobody wants to have. The team you know is capable of more. Tell me what’s happening. We’ll talk about what might become possible.
Different rooms. Different stakes. One commitment: closing the distance between who we say we are and how we show up. Find the work that fits the change you’re ready to make.
A place to practice the values you claim—through experiences that expose the gap between intention and impact. Includes GOOD WHITE PEOPLE and more.
Explore Good People ↗You hired their brilliance. Is the room getting all of it? See what changes when people can exercise authority, speak honestly, and work through what’s happening in real time.
Meet Good Teams ↗Keynotes and facilitated experiences that leave a room thinking—and give people something practical to do differently when they leave it.
