Founder of I-PPE™ & Speaker on the Human Side of Safety
Dina Fodero is a speaker, certified Enneagram Practitioner, and the creator of I-PPE™ (Invisible Personal Protective Essentials) and Dare to D.R.E.A.M.™ — a transformational framework focused on emotional and mental safety, human connection, and personal growth.
Grounded in the belief that “PPE protects the body… I-PPE protects the person,” her work explores the invisible internal factors that influence how people think, feel, communicate, lead, and thrive — especially within construction and other high-pressure environments.
With more than 20 years of experience in leadership, communication, education, and personal development, Dina creates experiences and conversations that help individuals and teams build confidence, belonging, resilience, and healthier workplace cultures from the inside out.
Through her D.R.E.A.M.™ framework — Desire, Relationships, Enneagram, Attitude, and Meaning — Dina introduces what she calls “the essentials”: the internal foundations that support emotional well-being, self-awareness, connection, allyship, and the courage to grow personally and professionally.
While her work has a strong focus on supporting women in construction, her message also honours the importance of human connection, mentorship, and allyship across teams — because stronger cultures are built together.
