Kivi Bernhard
"Guiding You Towards Positive Predatory Thinking"
Kivi Bernhard Expertise: Change Management • Vision • Trust • Human Potential • Motivation
Fee Range: $10,000 to $15,000
Location: Georgia    Video
Exploding onto the professional speaker’s circuit, nationally and internationally, Kivi Bernhard is often described as an amalgamation of “Crocodile Dundee” and “Jerry McGuire with a YAHL-mullkah”. Now living in Atlanta, Georgia, Kivi was born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Having relocated to the United States some ten years ago with a total net worth of $860.22, Kivi Bernhard has combined his acute business acumen and success, in building a multimillion dollar international diamond business, with his passion for Africa and its wildlife. Using the hunting habits and techniques of the African Leopard, the most successful feline predator on earth, Kivi draws metaphors of personal and corporate leadership that will leave you spellbound.
Kivi’s award wining footage includes scenes of leopard behavior never before captured on film. Kivi is a member of the National Speakers Association and the International Federation For Professional Speakers, and is a riveting and captivating orator. Equally at home, tracking lion deep in the African bush as he is in the executive suites of fortune 500, you will hear enthralling stories of both. With incredible stage presence and a gifted eloquence, Kivi has presented internationally and is highly sought after by leading meeting planners.

Programs With Brief Descriptions:
  • LEADERSHIP GONE WILD™
    Critical Leadership From The African Leopard.
    This is a 55 minute, high energy and penetrating audio-visual presentation that will take your audience deep into the African bushlands and open savannahs with the aid of award winning video footage. The African leopard is the most successful and adaptable feline predator on earth and is master of the solo hunt. Effective leadership in life and business is all well and good, but how to maintain it, and do so with constancy, is what truly distinguishes leaders from followers. So it is with “predator” and “prey!” The global economy we live in today has dictated that our business teams be comprised of much more successful individuals. With incredible stage presence, Kivi will amaze, motivate and inspire audiences with laughter and tears, as he extracts a possible solution from this majestic predator. This keynote will include three of the now internationally renowned “Pillars of Positive Predatory Thinking TM” and will literally leave your audience spell-bound – that is, as soon as they sit back from the edge of their seats! This presentation will empower and infuse attendees with a keen “knowledge of self” and will allow them to take precise inventory of their exact personal tooling and apparatus. They will then instinctively move towards consistent leadership, as does the beautiful African leopard. This is critical, cutting-edge business and life thinking, presented like nothing you have ever experienced before. This keynote is, simultaneously, a visual, emotional and intellectual experience!

  • THE HUNT FOR SUCCESS™
    Relationship Selling From Africa’s Most Successful Predator.
    Sales executives and their teams will simply be blown away by this 55 minute, high energy and penetrating audio-visual presentation. Creating a paradigm shift for audiences, explaining that “relationship selling” starts at home, Kivi will take you on an imaginary safari deep in the African bush. The African leopard is the most successful and adaptable predator on earth and is master of the solo hunt. Building meaningful and significant relationships with clients and customers is the only way to build effective and sustainable business – period! However, it all must start with the primordial relationship one has with oneself. As we all attempt to master our own individual “hunt” for excellence, learning to trust, not only others, but ourselves, is a key component to our success. With incredible stage presence, Kivi will amaze, motivate and inspire audiences with laughter and tears, as he extracts a possible solution from this majestic predator. This presentation will empower and infuse attendees with a dose of P-PMS, Positive - Predatory Mind Set. It will lead them to themselves, allowing them to take precise inventory of their exact tooling and apparatus – and to trust it. This is critical, cutting-edge business and life thinking that has been incorporated into the MBA program of the renowned Coles School of Business, Kennesaw State University. Presented like nothing you have ever experienced before, the award winning video footage, combined with Kivi’s international flare and gifted speaking style, will leave your audiences roaring for more!

Seminar / Focus Group
  • BREAKFAST IN THE BUSH WITH KIVI.
    Finding the Leopard in Your Business.
    Often booked simultaneously with a keynote, this 1½ hour presentation is designed as a focus group breakfast for middle, upper and senior management levels. Like nothing the corporate training world has experienced before, this seminar will take two or three specific issues within your corporation and filter them through the instinctive leadership and management genius of Africa’s most successful feline predator, the leopard. During the course of this presentation, relevant organizational issues will be examined using the “Pillars of Positive Predatory Thinking™.” You got it! Six pillars of critical leadership thinking gleaned from Africa’s most successful predator will guide our analysis. This is a “must do” followup for organizations looking for maximum R.O.I. from one of Kivi’s conference or large meeting keynotes.
EXECUTIVE
  • EXECUTIVE RETREAT IN SOUTH AFRICA
    As a result of his unique association with Londolozi, perhaps the most exclusive and luxurious private game reserve in the world, Kivi Bernhard is able to offer what has to be the ultimate executive retreat! In the pristine setting of this privately owned game reserve, nestled in the heart of the South African bush-veldt, Kivi has enthralled top level executives, while they maximize four days of strategic planning and think-tanking under African skies, starting and ending each glorious day with a game drive viewing Africa’s big five.

    This will absolutely redefine “executive retreat” or “incentive” experience for any meeting planner. While, logistically, numbers in excess of twelve people are somewhat more involved to manage, Londolozi has facilitated incentive programs for up to sixty people.

    Hearing Kivi’s signature seminar programs, “Business Gone Wild™,” presented under a starlit African sky in an open air theater, will be an experience your team will truly never forget!

    P.S. It’s going to get wild! “Business Gone Wild™”
