Leopardology

Standing at a high boy, at yet another cocktail reception…at yet another meeting, and knowing not a soul—approaching me was a pleasant man that was specifically seeking me out. He said, “You’re Ed Rigsbee, and I’ve wanted to meet you.” In a South African accent, he introduced himself as Kivi Bernhard, the next day’s luncheon speaker.


Well, what a treat! I attended the next day’s luncheon and stayed for Kivi’s presentation. For business leaders, Kivi’s is a fresh voice on business success; drawing parallels to the hunting skills, techniques and success of the leopard, which he claims is the most successful predator on the planet. He did an excellent job of luring in the audience, mesmerizing the group with his stories and video footage.


Following his presentation, Kivi had for sale a few advance copies of his new book, Leopardology—The Hunt for Profit in a Tough Global Economy! Enjoying my new friend’s presentation, I stood in line and bought a copy. Reiterating an important point from his speech, his inscription to me on the inside cover read, “May you always be blessed to ‘Hunt your hunt!’”


I recommend very few books, and I’m recommending this one to you—I really enjoyed the book! Through a new window, Kivi’s book if filled with proven business success truths—many that he learned as a new immigrant, building a successful wholesale diamond business in the U.S. The business parallels he draws compared to the African leopard are compelling, inspirational, and motivational.


I really do not want to give away his ideas and lessen your reading experience; however I do believe this book to be exceptional, especially in our current difficult business environment. It motivated me, and it will motivate you. Go buy the book, today!
