JOIN THE
DEAN'S LIST

EMPOWERING EVERYONE:  The Dean's List is a Charlotte-based digital branding and career consulting agency focused on building a strong community of empowered individuals. Our founder, Meredith Dean, created the company with a mission to uplift our clients, regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, or background. This mission helped the company grow from digital services to in-person and virtual events that created open forums for everyone to connect authentically in a safe space as well as to recognize young professionals who shape the world and give us hope for the future. Learn more about us from our community of 10,000+ professionals at our events:  Meetups, Dinners, TGIM Panels & IG Lives, EmpowerCon & our 20 Under 20 Awards. And of course, all of our guests stay on brand with a dress code of their unique style, but in our colors, blue and white!

Dean's List Dinners
The Dean's List brings together 10 diverse trailblazers to spark meaningful dialogue once a month over an intimate Dean's List Dinner. Our goal is to gather people from various religions, ages, political parties, races, industries, and cultural backgrounds to discover our common humanity.

Each dinner party is personally designed as an intimate gathering to spark meaningful conversation, new friendships, and knowledge sharing. Authentic, civil, and genuine dialogue where NO PHONES are allowed and opinions are encouraged. 

One expert guides the conversation that focuses on one topic - discovering our common humanity and opening up our minds to concepts we would have never been exposed to otherwise. 

10 Attendees. 1 Expert. 1 Host. 1 Topic.

Dean's List Meetups
Networking or big events can sometimes make us uneasy... make us feel awkward at first. Sometimes it’s out of our comfort zones to have small talk with strangers.
 
That’s one of the many reasons we started @MyDeansList Meetups. To have an inclusive, come-as-you-are, collection of trailblazers/young professionals to collaborate in a cool, comfortable setting. No more stuffy business professional attire.
 
Our first Meetup was all about “Making the First Move” with @BumbleBizz, “Getting Out Of Your Comfort Zone” with @Traveling_Gypsy, and “Tackling Fear” with champion NASCAR driver @JuliaLandauer. Atlanta's first meetup was at Dancing Dogs Yoga capturing a day of learning, community, yoga, and thoughtful conversation.
 
Now, we've taken meetups internationally! We are taking our first group of open-minded and inclusive travelers to Bali in 2024. Book your spot on our next trip here.
