'Mutual Consent' Teacher Placement Gains Ground

Education Week reports:
A handful of districts and two states are doing away with the forced placement of teachers in schools in favor of a system requiring both the teacher and principal to agree to a transfer.

The movement is generally supported by school leaders, who say that they must be able to have a choice in the selection of talent in their building if they are to be held accountable for achievement results.
Couldn't you imagine this in the private sector?
