Welcome to episode six of Stories Untold, where we sit down with Melissa Fein, Managing Director, Media, APAC at Accenture Song – a sharp thinker, dynamic leader, and fierce advocate for creativity, innovation and values-driven leadership.
In this episode, Melissa reflects on her journey from becoming one of Australia’s youngest CEOs to leading media at one of the country’s most influential marketing and communications firms. With honesty, clarity and hard-won insight, she unpacks what it takes to thrive in a fast-paced, traditionally male-dominated industry – and why staying true to your values can be your biggest advantage.
