The Courage To Lead With Values In An Age Of Uncertainty: Insights From Workhuman Live 2025
Eric Mosley takes the stage at Workhuman Live 2025 to share how Human Intelligence is transforming ... More the workplace. I came into Workhuman Live 2025 with a question I was eager to explore: In a moment defined by acute disruption and technological acceleration, what does it take to lead with clarity and conviction, meeting the needs of both the business and people in it? Our speakers and attendees were posing the same question. Across every stage and side chat, I saw a thread running through the conversation: the importance of values, and how staying aligned to those values can drive forward both employee wellbeing and business performance. The theme of the week soon became clear: In times of uncertainty, values are cultural anchors. And the moral courage to stand by them is a leadership differentiator. As Kelly Jones, EVP and Chief People Officer at Cisco, put it in our Wednesday panel: 'Leadership without moral courage is weak tea.' As Kelly explained, oftentimes, when you're in times of disruption, employees want to know where you stand. 'This is the moral courage part,' she explained. 'Your culture comes to life through what you do, not what you say. And so you know, these moments of being able to communicate often and inclusively about who you are and where you stand on these things are very important.' But to act with courage, leaders need more than just instinct or good intentions. They also need visibility into the unbiased truth of their organizations: how people work, where culture thrives or breaks down, and where values are lived or lost. Moral courage doesn't mean having all the answers. It does mean being willing to seek out the truth. And this points to the other major threads of the conference: Having curiosity and seeking answers even when it's hard. In other words, finding and building on better data. Adam Grant reminded us of this in his keynote, urging attendees to seek out the truth about their own leadership and organizations. Finding a source of truth is important, he noted, even if it is uncomfortable or leaders feel uncertain. As Trevor Noah also observed in his keynote, 'Fear is an interesting emotion in that it lives in uncertainty. It breathes in uncertainty. And so there are a lot of leaders who are unsure, but I don't think a leader needs to be sure. What a good leader needs to be is communicative.' Culture, Clarity, and Alignment Moral courage and values may be the north star, but to lead with them consistently, you also have to see clearly how they are being practiced across your organization: where your culture is thriving, where it's under strain, and how people are actually experiencing work. Kerry Dryburgh, Chief Human Resource Officer of bp, offered a powerful example of this during our CHRO panel, reflecting on the company's decision to exit Russia following the invasion of Ukraine. It was a decision made quickly, but with a deep conviction rooted in bp's values. As Kerry explained, it wasn't just a political or financial choice. It was a people one. A recognition that you can't hold a values statement in one hand and do something misaligned with the other. That kind of clarity – knowing what matters, and acting on it – demands both insight and courage. But even with strong values, alignment doesn't happen by accident. It takes intentional leadership at every level of the organization. 'I think the first thing you have to think about is what's right in what context,' Kerry said. 'And it doesn't always mean that everything has to be the same… building authentic leaders, because at the end of the day, any moment for an employee is very largely impacted by the teams they work with and the leaders they work for.' It means making sure your people understand where the company is going, and how their work connects to that journey. 'Individuals tend to be more energized and motivated when they can see a direct line of sight between the company goals and what they're actually focused on,' Kerry said. 'So you've got a line of sight to outcomes and are rewarding accordingly.' But when that clarity is present, and when people feel seen, informed, and connected to the mission, it transforms the experience of work and business results. Human Intelligence as a Tool for Courageous Leadership This idea – that you don't need certainty to lead, but you do need clarity – is where many of our discussions this week converged. And, of course, getting to the truth starts with the right data. Whether feedback, answers, or people data, as Kelly Jones from Cisco said: 'Your data has got to be good or this will not work.' She reminded us during her session that no AI platform, however sophisticated, can create meaningful results without first starting with high-quality data. That's where Human Intelligence comes in. It's where values, data, and action converge, and where leaders can ensure they have the clarity to lead with both conviction and confidence. Recognition data as a source is uniquely powerful in this way because it is voluntary and specific, reflecting how work actually happens in an organization. It captures the informal networks, hidden contributions, and behaviors that don't always show up in traditional systems. That makes it a vital tool for aligning people with values, surfacing influence, and understanding the lived experience of culture in real time. Recognition itself functions first as a values-alignment tool, revealing who is modeling your organization's principles, where momentum is building, and where attention is needed. It shows not just what is rewarded, but what is remembered. And when used intentionally, it helps reinforce purpose and direction at every level of the business. Combined with AI, recognition also becomes a values measurement tool. Too often, leaders rely on lagging indicators or incomplete survey data to assess culture, skills, and engagement. But Human Intelligence offers real-time insight into what's working, what's shifting, and where leaders need to lean in. That kind of visibility supports better decisions, grounded not in assumptions, but in patterns of actual behavior. And critically, Human Intelligence is a performance engine. When leaders are working from clean, behavior-based data instead of fragmented, transactional metrics, they can invest in what's creating value, course-correct where needed, and scale what's working. As I shared in my keynote, we are surrounded by behavioral data in the workplace, but most of it is locked inside messy systems. Unlocking that data and making it visible, usable, and human-centered gives leaders a foundation not just for culture and performance but also for confidence and more ethical decision-making. And in a world where values and performance are increasingly intertwined, that source of truth is essential. Moral Courage Is Not a Solo Sport: Community as Infrastructure Of course, even the strongest values can falter in isolation. Courage is easier to summon when you're not the only one carrying it. That's why I was especially proud to help launch the WSJ Chief People Officer Council at Workhuman Live 2025, a new peer forum created by The WSJ Leadership Institute in partnership with Workhuman. At a time when people leaders are being asked to lead through transformation, uphold culture, drive performance, and navigate intense social scrutiny all at once, this kind of space is crucial. The Council reflects the growing reality that CPOs and CHROs have become co-authors of the business agenda. And this council will be a space for bold ideas, real influence, and shared experience in leading through the complexity of our time. Trevor Noah issued a challenge to our audience on Wednesday to 'Be curious, so that fear is not the emotion you're experiencing.' The CPO Council is designed for just that sort of curiosity. It will be a place where questions are welcome, doubt is respected, and progress is built through collective curiosity. What It Takes to See – and Lead – Clearly If I emerged from this week with one insight, it is that in times of noise, the real competitive advantage is clarity. Clarity of purpose. Clarity of culture. Clarity of data. Clarity about what your organization stands for, and how that shows up in action. And moral clarity, which cuts across every aspect of people leadership and every topic on our agenda – from business performance to AI transformation, to DEI. As Valeisha Butterfield said during our panel: 'We determined that [DEI] was good for business, not just because it was a popular thing to do, and then holding the line and saying, 'This is good for my company. This is good for my industry. We're seeing gains. We're seeing bottom-line returns. So we're going to have courage in this moment, because we know, not only that it's the right thing to do, but it's actually good for our business.' That kind of courage may emerge as a defining trait of leadership in the AI era. The future of people leadership will belong to those brave enough to act in alignment with their values – with clarity, connection, and at scale. When data makes values visible, and community makes them actionable, leaders are equipped not only to respond, but to lead with courage. You can learn more about the CPO Council at

Stereophonics: 'We're into all of it, whether it's Cyndi Lauper or fucking Metallica, I don't really care...'
As Stereophonics release the fantastic Make 'em Laugh, Make 'em Cry, Make 'em Wait, frontman Kelly Jones chats about his myriad influences, David Bowie, the Stones, and the band's upcoming Irish shows. Stereophonics were on stage on Sunday night at The Wiltern Theatre, on the corner of Wilshire Boulevard and Western Avenue in Los Angeles, at the business end of an extensive North America tour, which kicked off in Montreal in mid-March and wraps up in Mexico City in a few days. But not before the band's head buck cat, Kelly Jones, joined Hot Press, a few hours before showtime, to chat about the band's blasting new album, Make 'em Laugh, Make 'em Cry, Make 'em Wait – their 13th long player. Is he superstitious? 'Thirteen has always been quite lucky for me,' he grins. 'Actually, I came 13th in the Grand National the other day. We had a tour pool, and our merchandise guy won it all.' Thirteen Stereophonics albums not out. It's some way back to 1997's Word Gets Around, and its lead single 'Local Boy In The Photograph', the opening salvo from the Cwmaman trio and that voice. Frontman Kelly Jones and late drummer Stuart Cable grew up on the same street, and recruited another native son, Richard Jones, before gigging the tough working man's club and pub circuit. A gilded tour support slot with fellow Welshmen Manic Street Preachers set packs of labels on their heels, with Richard Branson's V2 Records nabbing them. Sophomore album Performance & Cocktails, with its iconic cover – the Scarlet Page photograph of the kissing couple under the Westway – was on the shelf of every decent record collection, and lead single 'The Bartender And The Thief' blared out of every respectable tavern. The record went to Number 1 in the UK, a remarkable feat that seven more of the band's albums have achieved since. The 2025 Stadium Tour, the band's first run of live shows in over three years, has been billed as 'No Hit Left Behind'. The title is bang on the money, with the setlist packed with hits and fan-favourites – 'Dakota', 'Have A Nice Day', 'Maybe Tomorrow', 'Mr. Writer' – as well as a couple of cuts off the new record. 'We've only been doing the two that are out so far', Kelly says. 'When you've got 13 albums… We've got another song coming out the week after next and we'll probably add that. Everybody's filming everything, so I'd rather not have it that the first time somebody hears a new song is through somebody's phone.' Tickets to the shows are flying out the door, with over 300,000 already pocketed, and Kelly informs me that the audiences are multi-generational. After completing the North American leg of the tour, the band take an Easter break, before plunging into Europe, and arriving on these shores for three massive outdoor gigs in Belfast, Dublin and Cork. That's some pace, and when you couple that with the curr ent creative splurge, which Mr. Jones is revelling in – between this record and Stereophonics' 2022 effort Oochya!, he sandwiched in a solo record and other projects – the man is a machine. 'The Far From Saints record, which I did with my mates from Austin, Texas, was an Americana record,' Kelly explains. 'We co-wrote it together. So that's one way of making a record that was very different for me, and the solo record was all played on the piano. Those songs kind of swam to the surface, and they reveal themselves to tell you which projects they are for. 'I can instantly tell what's for the Stereophonics camp. But I'm grateful for the option to work with different musicians and learn from different people. This Stereophonics album came about quite fast. It was recorded in about two or three weeks. I had two songs – 'Seems Like You Don't Know Me' and 'Colours Of October' – which were potentially going to be used by Universal to release a new greatest hits record, because they haven't done one since 2008. 'But when they heard the two new songs, they suggested making a new studio record. So, I invited the boys to the studio for maybe 10 days and it was done.' Sounds pretty effortless when you consider the impact Kelly's songs continue to have on the masses. 'I think if people sense there's truth and honesty in it – whether it's 'Maybe Tomorrow', 'Traffic' or 'Dakota' – they know. They can feel it and they connect to it. That's why 60,000 people sing those words back to you in a field, because they've gone through something similar to that feeling. 'For 'Seems Like You Don't Know Me', I think everybody's been in a relationship where the communication hits a wall, and nobody knows who they are in the relationship anymore.' 'Backroom Boys' could have featured on the Phonics' debut, being as it is, a track about being young in small-town Wales. 'That was a Friday night in the house,' Kelly explains. 'I had a couple of beers, picked the guitar up, and it just come out in one take. I couldn't actually believe that it happened, I'm glad I put the phone on record! It's a song about leaving my girlfriend's house when I was about 15 – I'm supposed to be catching the last bus home. 'But there's a rock band playing in the local pub, and all my brother's mates are taking the money on the door. I was always allowed to sneak in and watch the bands, because they knew I was in a band since I was 12 years of age. It was amazing to be sat in these old backrooms of pubs with grown men and grown women doing adult things. 'I was allowed to sit and watch the music and all this stuff going on around me. I was always surrounded by older people in working men's clubs and pubs.' Indeed, Kelly's father, Arwyn, a singer in Oscar and the Kingfishers, performed in working men's clubs. 'I used to carry his speakers around from when I could lift them,' he recalls. 'I mean, being in those dress rooms, listening to people talk, and watching how somebody creates a setlist – how, when they walk on, nobody cares, and by the end, they're receiving a standing ovation – that takes a craft. 'I don't care if you're playing a stadium or whether you play a working man's club – to make people who are not giving a shit, fall in love with you and not want you to leave, that's an art. I learned that from playing those clubs.' Further influence came from his older siblings. 'Having two older brothers,' Kelly expands, 'there was lots of music around, and Stuart's brother was playing all different sorts of music. So, we were exposed to so many musicians and styles of music. My older brother, Kevin, was always playing Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Chicken Shack, all sorts of weird stuff, so I was always listening to lots of lyrics about things I didn't understand. 'And then there'd be Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin coming out of another room. And there'd be MOR stuff, like Foreigner and Journey, really melodic stuff, and Bruce Springsteen coming out of yet another room. When I listen to Stereophonics, it's all in there, really – country, MOR, punk rock elements. And there's an energy, obviously, AC/DC and the rock and roll thing. 'We were never a closed book. We're into all of it, whether it's Cyndi Lauper or fucking Metallica, I don't really care. I like listening to whatever energy is being put out there.' Indeed, the last song on the album, 'Feeling Of Falling We Crave', has a country hue to it. 'It has,' Kelly nods. 'That could have gone on the Far From Saints record, and it was a contender for a while. Then I pulled it back and I got a guy, a friend of mine – Jason from Nashville – to play the lap steel pedal, he did an incredible job. It's a beautiful song.' Talk to me about the album title. 'It goes back to the setlist and working man's clubs I was in,' says Kelly. 'I didn't want to get a job in a factory, like all my mates, so I ended up going to art school because I knew I could draw a bit. And then I ended up doing film school, screenplay writing and stuff like that, and it's led onto lyric writing oddly. 'And one of the guys there, he wrote in my notebook, 'Just make 'em laugh, make 'em cry, make 'em wait.' And I took that notion into all my setlists, and the arcs of my stories and songs. So, I thought it was time to use it as an album title.' Credit: James D Kelly I was reading that when you were touring with Bowie, you remarked that he would tinker with his setlist depending on what part of the States he was in. 'It was incredible,' Kelly confirms. 'None of my brothers were playing Bowie records. So when Tony, our keyboard player from Manchester, introduced me to Bowie just before that tour, I wasn't starstruck, because I wasn't really a huge fan at the time. I really got into Hunky Dory on that tour. 'I was writing a short story, and I used the character names Hunky and Dory, and he would read my screenplay treatments and give me notes. But on the east coast, he'd be playing Trent Reznor songs, and when he'd get into middle America, he'd be whacking on 'Let's Dance'. It was great to watch him carving out parts of his catalogue to appeal to different parts of an audience across America, incredibly interesting.' Let's talk about the band's huge upcoming Irish shows. 'We're looking forward to getting back over there,' says Kelly. 'It's been a little while, and it's always nice to do the outdoor shows. We just threw caution to the wind, really. We just chucked a bunch of stuff on sale. No fucking idea how people are going to buy tickets these days. 'But as you can tell, the event has gone crazy. People are buying our stadium shows all over the world, and we've been a band that's always been different sizes in different countries at different times. So, I'm really excited that people have bought the tickets, and we're looking forward to getting back over and playing to the people.' The Phonics are regular visitors to these shores. 'We've done anything and everything in Ireland,' Kelly confirms. 'From the Witness festival to the Point, from clubs in Temple Bar right up to headlining Slane Castle – we've done it all over there, even played the Guinness factory. I've done all of them.' The Stereophonics then make their triumphant UK return, playing stadiums across Britain, including two nights in the band's backyard – the iconic Principality Stadium in Cardiff. Considering the awful run the Welsh rugby team are enduring, I risk bantering that when the Phonics touch down there, it will be a definite hometown win. 'Yeah,' he drily laughs, 'Thanks for that. Appreciate it.' It turns out that a young Kelly Jones was in the audience when The Rolling Stones played the then Wales national stadium, the old Cardiff Arms Park. 'I saw them on the '89 Urban Jungle tour,' he confirms. 'I think it was the Steel Wheels album. That was a typical backroom boys story, they all took me to The Rolling Stones. I was 14. I think it was just after Keith cut his finger, so the Stones rescheduled the gig and one of the boys couldn't go. 'I was weeding my mother's shoe-shop garden at the time, and they said, 'You want to come?' And I'm like, 'Well, fuck the weeds, I'm coming.'' Make 'em Laugh, Make 'em Cry, Make 'em Wait is out now. Stereophonics play Belsonic, Belfast on June 5; St. Anne's Park, Dublin (6); and Virgin Media Park, Cork (7).
