ICF Certified Professional Coach (CPC) | ELI-MP | MBA

After spending over 20 years earning a reputation as an executive "fixer"—rescuing failing teams, turning around bleeding budgets, and stabilizing multi-million dollar accounts across consumer and pharmaceutical advertising—Ouida Duncan founded White River Consulting to solve the primary driver of enterprise failure: human capital breakdown.

Holding an MBA in Strategy & International Business from the University of Bath (UK) and certified through iPEC with over 320 hours of rigorous training, Ouida blends deep operational mastery with elite coaching frameworks. She steps directly into high-friction environments to dismantle the internal barriers, decision paralysis, and burnout that derail promising leaders. Rather than analyzing surface metrics, Ouida intervenes at the behavioral and structural levels, equipping executives and teams to convert operational crisis into sustainable, long-term growth.
