Cara de Lange

Cara de Lange is the Founder & CEO of Softer Success, providing evidence backed burnout solutions for organisations. Leading in science, Softer Success works with the world’s top universities, researchers and psychologists to understand the causes of burnout in a hybrid work environment. Their groundbreaking 90 second anonymous burnout risk assessment ‘A Walk Through the Forest’ quickly diagnoses the risk of burnout and toxicity in organisations.

She has a strong focus on the UN Sustainable Development Goals combining good health & wellbeing for sustainable productivity.

Cara is a sought-after keynote speaker on the subject of burnout and is regularly invited to speak at organisations such as Google, Box and the United Nations. Her book, Softer Success: Prevent Burnout, Find Balance and Re-Define Your Success, was published in 2019.
