Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with authors and leadership consultants Minette Norman and Dr. Karolin Helbig.

They first connected online while participating in a certification program focused on psychological safety assessments based on Amy C. Edmondson’s groundbreaking work. Bonding over shared values around inclusive, empathetic, and mindful leadership, they collaborated to create a practical, research-based guide for leaders.

Their first book, The Psychological Safety Playbook, was written before they even met face-to-face and quickly became a valuable resource for leaders looking to build trust and stronger team cultures. Now, they return with their new 2026 release, The Psychological Safety Playbook for Changemakers, launching May 19, 2026.

In this conversation, we explore their journey, the importance of psychological safety in today’s workplace, and actionable strategies leaders can use to create environments where people feel safe to speak up, contribute, and thrive.
