Introduction

5. Carlos is a Marketing Manager in a large
multi-national company in the
Philippines. He has been with the
company for over 12 years and is
considered to be one of the best in his
department. Over the past few years, he
has traveled all the way from QC to
Makati and leaves his home before 6am
and arrives around 8pm everyday. His
wife, Beth, is a Homemaker and they
have 3 children. Because of his job, he
has provided all the needs of their family
but he just does not have the energy to
do other things.
Case Study

6. When he drives to his office every
morning, he often feels guilty as his kids
are still asleep. Worse, when he arrives
home he does not have the energy to
play with them and often shouts at them
because he is exhausted from a long
day’s work. His relationship with his wife
is also deteriorating as all he does is sleep
and watch NBA games when he is at
home. Often, Beth wants to talk to him
but even before she finishes her first
sentence, he is already snoring. Carlos
knows that he is failing as a father and
husband but he can’t do anything as he
feels has so many responsibilities at
work.
