Do companies in Brazil engage in any Quality Control Programs? Ex TQM, ISO, Six Sigma, Kaizen.
I am writing a report on Brazil and i was wondering if anyone can help me out. I know Brazilian companies do engage in QCP, but i was wondering which companies engage in these, and in what way tdo they do so? If anyone can provide me with a website that could help me out I would be grateful and would really appreciate it!

My NW high-tech company is implementing Kaizen. I was hopeful! They then let the known abuser host the Kaizen, (spectacular abuse). Anyway, before it, he lured me in with lots of information requests about work processes. Great, he wants to improve the dept processes, I gave him diagrams, tutorials. Note before me, my job was a 1.5 person job, I have never missed a target, so I "know" I’m not a bad worker.
Well, the Kaizen turned out to be an ambush on me so that he could establish DOMINANCE and terrorize all the employees in the room. He kept repeatedly questioning me on how long it takes to get a data export to his people. This went on for 2 hours each time, 2 weeks in row, in front of 15 silent, terrorized people staring at me. I am a SUCKER. I kept calmly explaining, how you have to juggle a workload to get it all done.
Come to find out, he’s worked over other people including one with cancer & one with MS.
This has seriously affected how I see the company, especially as it’s providing refuge, aiding & abetting this abuser. Also, this has affected how I see the people in the room who were silent. I don’t really socialize with them anymore.

Does anyone know if Kaizen‘s Ephedrine HCL (8mg) is available for purchase from US based websites or it’s only a Canadian product?

Even tho it’s a lower dosage pill, it’s still a better bargain than Vasopro…. Plus, Vasopro has Guaifenesin which is an expectorant and makes my nose run like mad when I take it right before I go running …

Pure Ephedrine is an incredibly effective (yes- and safe in healthy people who take it within FDA dosage guidelines) bronchodilator and I just don’t need or want the stuff that has Guaifenesin in it… and Kaizen is the only brand I’m aware of in North America that is bare bones and cheap…
FYI:
I am not an Olympian or a professional ahtlete – LOL… Ephedrine HCL is approved by the FDA as an asthma treatment and has NEVER been banned… even when HERBAL EPHEDRA was TEMPORARILY banned here in the US several years ago.
I have been taking Ephedrine HCL for the past 8 years as a cheap alternative to more expensive asthma medicines which are overkill for my needs. Ephedrine HCL is available at any pharmacy counter without prescription (but you have to show ID)… usually found as Primatene Tabs. But they have been jacking up the prices precisely because it IS OTC and always was… internet merchants charge a fortune for Vasopro too… but Kaizen is a lot cheaper and the low dosage works fine for my needs…

I have an MBA and I am wondering if I should go on getting a Black belt certification in Six Sigma ( NOT KARATE you guys!) OR become a CPA? Given the current job market which one makes more sense, CPA or Black belt in six sigma?
