> displacing these ideas is difficult because the teachers' unions in the USA are powerful

I can pinpoint over 10 dumb decisions taken by my corporate, as a result of office politics and jockeying for various positions.

There are many myths corporate britain believes, from forcing develipers back in the office to improve productivity despite having concrete evidence that it doesn't, to hiring 'agile practitioners', etc.

No union required for dumb decisions

It wasn't a "unions bad" rant, more a "these unions in this country are dysfunctional" rant.

And teachers' unions in the USA are unions of government workers, not corporate.

No union required for dumb decisions. But in this case, it does seem it may contribute
