In her column for Forbes, BCG’s Deborah Lovich unpacks the implications of the phrase “bull in a china shop,” which refers to a person who acts in an unruly fashion in a situation that requires skill and care. Though the phrase is often employed with a negative connotation, Lovich argues that the business world needs more “bulls”—people who are unafraid to upend current systems and break the bureaucratic barriers stalling much-needed change. If leaders want their businesses to continue growing and innovating, she advises encouraging disruptors rather than maintaining the status quo.
