Doubtful. There is a way to project confidence while acknowledging fundamental uncertainty, I think it's probably more effective and sustainable than outright lying. Being untransparent about difficulty in the long run creates distrust in authority because eventually you accumulate enough fuckups. I think the biggest error in modern leadership practices is confusing certainty for confidence. Anyways your statement is literally begging the question: ["people want certainty and stability" is] not going to change. Certainty and stability is what people want.
