WE GO THERE WITH YOU
OUR TEAM
(where time meets the work)
Most consultants study the room. We sit in it alongside you – through mergers, crises, successions, deaths, and confidentially present for the private personal moments that don’t make it into case studies.
It is not theory, it is decades of handmade, hard-won clarity, built by figuring out what it takes to measure trust and find the human center in the midst of change.
COURTNEY FEIDER – Founder | Chief Executive
Courtney founded These Wild Humans around a simple but costly observation: most organizations don’t have a strategy problem. They have a trust and accountability problem that strategy keeps trying to solve.
She brings twenty-five years of behavioral analysis, motivational depth, and an innate ability to read a leader — in a single conversation — and see not just who they are, but where they belong, how they lead best, and how the team around them can rise to meet that. It is pattern recognition built from the inside out, refined across some of the world’s most demanding organizations: Kraft Heinz, Mars, Amazon, Google, Shopify, Chobani, and the Authors Guild, among others.
Her work helps leaders and teams close the gap that costs the most — not with a new process, but with real clarity about who they are, how they lead, and what they are actually building together. Courtney is Certified Practitioner of the Leadership Circle, an Accredited Enneagram Practitioner Level 1 & 2 for IEQ9, and a Professional Certified Coach and Master Coach candidate via ICF.

DAVID FIRTH – Principal Consultant
David has spent over twenty years helping global organizations do the thing that sounds simple and rarely is — get their leaders to communicate in ways that create genuine accountability rather than the performance of it.
He works with VP, C-Suite, and high-potential leaders inside some of the world’s most recognized companies. What stays with them isn’t the framework. It’s the moment they understand the difference between talking about change and becoming responsible for it.
Current and recent clients include Jardine Matheson, Campbells, Mars Inc, Pepsi, Softys,
Unilever, and the International Olympic Committee. David is a Master Facilitator of Open Space Technology.

MEET OUR ADVISORS
You Deserve Our Respect.
Our advisors have each spent two to three decades inside the kinds of organizations they now serve. We bring that experience to every engagement – not as a credential, but as a quality of understanding.
When we sit across from a leader navigating trust erosion, or an executive team that’s aligned on paper and fractured in practice, or an organization running a change initiative that technically launched and humanly stalled – we know what we’re looking at.
We’ve been in those rooms from the other side.
