Hello and welcome back to another episode of Her HypeSquad with Bosstrack
In this episode I’m talking with Melissa Park, an award-winning global event producer and founder of Melissa Park Events and the Mel-Factor Method.
Melissa and I talk about building leadership credibility, using your network for success, the importance of asking questions and the time she met Sir Richard Branson.
I hope you find as much value in listening to this episode as I did recording it!
About Melissa Park
Melissa “Mel” Park is an award-winning Global Event Producer who has utilized her engaging personality, unending energy, and attention to logistical and design details to build a business that is recognized across the United States and Australia.
After producing high profile, business and consumer events Melissa broke out on her own and launched her first event management company in Australia at the age of 26. She produced events like HSBC Bank’s Chinese New Year Gala Dinner Tour and more than 20 outdoor festivals attracting 20,000 - 100,000 attendees.
She also served as the stage manager for notable events like the Sydney Olympic Games 10 Year Anniversary Ceremony, Sydney International FIFA Fan Fest in 2010, and the Major League Baseball Opening Series in 2014.
Melissa moved to the US in 2014 where she began working internally for two years at Hortonworks and two years later stepped back out on her own with Melissa Park Events specializing in elevating brands, amplifying corporate messages and transforming struggling events into extraordinary must-attend experiences.
She's made a name for herself in the technology space for her seamlessly executed large-scale user conferences, strategic sponsorships, and innovative brand activations. Her client list has grown from one continent to another based on referrals, recognition from attendees onsite, and clients who return year after year for her to produce their events.
She currently splits her time between New York and Sydney when she is not traveling to produce her nearly 30 annual events.
Her events have been featured on many TV and radio programs in Australia. She is the creator of the The Mel-Factor Method masterclass, a contributing writer to numerous publications and a sought-after keynote speaker and panelist.
I’m so excited to bring you my conversation with Melissa Park.
