Kivi Bernhard Biography

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Kivi Bernhard 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, he went on to build a multimillion-dollar international wholesale diamond business. With the aid of award-winning footage, Bernhard 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.

Now the author of the internationally acclaimed business book "Leopardology ™ – The Hunt for Profit in a Tough Global Economy," Bernhard has received accolades from top CEOs and bestselling authors. "Leopardology™" was incorporated into the MBA program of Kennesaw State University, Coles School of Business in 2007. He offers a variety of speaking topics including attitude, change, inspiration, leadership, management, motivation, peak performance, and sales. His keynote presentations like "LEOPARDOLOGY™ - The Hunt For Profit In A Tough Global Economy," "LEADERSHIP GONE WILD™ - Critical Business Leadership From The African Leopard," "THE HUNT FOR SUCCESS™ - Relationship Selling From Africa’s Most Successful Predator," and "TRUST GONE WILD™ - The True Meaning of Trust From The African Leopard," have been noted for their dynamic and unique insights.

With an unusual synthesis, Bernhard is an orthodox Jew, passionate family man, adventurer, accomplished business entrepreneur, author, and renowned speaker. In 1998 he founded Kivi International LLC, an internationally known wholesale loose diamond distributor, and is its CEO. A keen student of life with a huge appetite for laughter and love, Bernhard is also an accomplished and published musician, Judo medalist, and gemological consultant. Currently, he is engaged in an international business project as a founder and board member. His work has captivated audiences worldwide, blending his deep love for the African bush with his professional experiences to deliver riveting presentations that resonate on both professional and personal levels.
