Andreia “Dre” McLean

With over a decade of experience designing immersive gatherings for brands like Microsoft, Deloitte, Google, and Barbet, Dre knows that the most powerful events aren’t about scale—they’re about impact.

Through her signature HEFT method (Hosting, Engagement, Flow, Takeaway), she helps brands and creatives turn ideas into experiences people actually remember. This workbook distills her guest-first approach into a tool you can use again and again—whether you’re planning a retreat, a dinner party, a brand activation, or something all your own.

  • "The Event Playbook gave me the structure I didn’t know I needed. Every phase was mapped, every detail felt intentional, and our attendees noticed"

  • “I’ve planned dozens of events, but this was the first time I felt like I truly designed the experience. People were still talking about it weeks later.”

  • “I wanted our launch to feel special, but I didn’t know where to start. This workbook made it so clear, and I actually enjoyed the process.”

  • “We’ve used strategy decks before, but this was different - it was personal, human, and deeply aligned with our audience. It changed the way we think about events.”
