A Founder’s Masterclass in Values-Driven Velocity | Annalee Hagood-Earl | The Empathy Edge

If you’ve ever wondered what it really looks like to lead a fast-growing business with heart, humor, and humanity, this episode is your masterclass. In this episode of The Empathy Edge, Maria Ross sits down with Annalee Hagood-Earl, CEO and co-founder of Bash Creative Inc. Under Annalee’s leadership, Bash has attracted some of the world’s biggest brands—not just because of its creativity and execution, but because people can feel the company’s values in every interaction. Annalee shares what it means to truly live your values as a leader—through explosive growth, uncertainty, and even moments when “the bottom dropped out.” From investing in your team’s development to redefining success based on how your team feels while producing (not just what they produce), this conversation is packed with actionable leadership wisdom. We explore: • Why reinvesting in your team’s development builds long-term resilience • The difference between values and ideals—and why it matters when hiring • Why Annalee hires people smarter than herself • What she learned from her worst managers • How communication and transparency strengthen culture and retention • Why leaders should consider “counseling” with business partners and executive teams • How modeling self-awareness, joy, and growth impacts performance “We take a lot of time to interview and recruit. We’re looking for aligned values, not aligned ideals. I want people with different perspectives on my team. I want to learn from them.” — Annalee Hagood-Earl Annalee Hagood-Earl is the CEO and co-founder of Bash Creative Inc., an agency known for designing world-class events and experiences for global brands.
