Kivi Bernhard is taking the professional speakers circuit by storm, Kivi Bernhard has been requested to keynote audiences from the Bahamas to Bangkok.

Described by a leading international speaker bureau as “one of the most promising and talented speakers in the world today” Kivi is a riveting and captivating speaker and is renowned for his platform excellence.

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Kivi was born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa. After relocating to the USA in 1997 with his wife and family and a total net worth of $860.22, Kivi went on to build a multimillion dollar international wholesale diamond business.

With the aid of award winning footage, Kivi uses the hunting habits and techniques of the African leopard, perhaps the most successful feline predator on earth, to draw metaphors of personal and corporate leadership, trust and success that will simply leave you spellbound.

Now the author of the internationally acclaimed business book Leopardology™ – The Hunt For Profit In A Tough Global Economy, (Morgan James 2009) Kivi Bernhard has received accolade from some of the finest business schools in America.

Kivi Bernhard is one of those amazing people you meet every once in a while and never forget. With an unusual synthesis, he is an orthodox Jew, passionate family man, adventurer, accomplished business entrepreneur, author and renowned speaker.

CEO and founder of an internationally known wholesale loose diamond distributor, Kivi’s business network reads like a current edition of “Who’s Who?”

Kivi Bernhard

Tapping into this asset has allowed him access to the minds and spirit of some of the most accomplished names in the local and global business arena.

A keen student of life with a huge appetite for laughter and love, Kivi is an accomplished and published musician, Judo medalist and gemological consultant.

Often described as an amalgamation of “Crocodile Dundee” and “Jerry McGuire with a yarmulka” Kivi is a riveting and captivating orator. Equally at home tracking lion deep in the African bush as he is in the executive suites of a Fortune 500, he will regale you with enthralling stories of both.

A consummate professional, Kivi Bernhard is a fountain of positive energy and human potential. His personal journey, including his victories and his losses, have given him a unique laboratory in which to study the DNA of this thing we call “success.”

As one of  the most talented  and sought after professional keynote speakers today, Kivi Bernhard uses the hunting habits and techniques of the African leopard, the most successful feline predator on earth, to explore our “hunt” for success.

Kivi seamlessly transitions between the “bush” and the “boardroom” with extraordinary platform skill that can only be described as captivating.

LeopardologyTM – the art of Positive Predatory Thinking. Critical business strategy, gleaned from the hunt of the African leopard.

Critical business thinking and strategy, gleaned from the hunting habits and techniques of the African leopard, perhaps the most successful predator on earth!

Using the hunting habits and techniques of Africa’s most successful predator, Leopardology TM draws metaphors of personal and business success that will simply leave you spellbound!

Having the “lion’s share” of market territories and clients, to which corporations have been accustomed, is no longer the case.

Competitor predators are continually on the prowl for your market share and profit. On the plains of the African savannah, deficiencies of vision, strategy, trust and change-management are often the indicators that lead alert predators to easy prey. Not unlike the world of commerce, in the bushlands of Africa, if one is not hunting to survive, one will simply survive to be hunted!
