About the Book

"The Next Higher Plain: Practical Wisdom for Grandchildren, Their Parents and Mentors" is a first-of-its-kind work. Its aim is to help the reader achieve the next higher plain of wisdom, in whatever area that reader hopes to improve-as a student, an employee or employer, a parent, a spouse, a homeowner or wealth creator. Ramesh Pant began life in Nepal, where he sometimes trekked to school on an elephant's back. He rose to prominence in business and academia, and now shares his wisdom in "The Next Higher Plain."
About the Author: Ramesh Pant offers a unique blend of life experience, including an Eastern upbringing and a Western education, business success on the global scale, and a stint as a college professor. This breadth of experience inspired him to write The Next Higher Plain and to found WisdomStars, a Think Tank Forum. Ram was born in Kathmandu, Nepal in 1941, and lost his mother before he was five years old. He and his siblings attended Jesuit boarding schools in India and Nepal, crossing the mountains in sedan chairs and (on occasion) elephants to earn his education. Education has been a lifelong passion for Ram - despite a lack of wherewithal. "Never in five years of college did I have a nickel for a Coca Cola," he recalls. He successfully applied to a University of Cambridge (UK) overseas high school program, then won a scholarship to Michigan State University. He finished his education with a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering from Northwestern University and a Master of Science in Industrial Administration from Purdue University. For the next 30 years, Ram worked for companies like Xerox and Agfa, then at age 53, took an unusual and risky assignment. The $9 million Indian software firm Wipro struggled to win western business. Ram signed on as the western market representative, on commission only, and brought in $109 million in business, which launched Wipro as a global service provider. Alongside that career, he launched six companies in toys, commercial printing, software services, leadership-level recruitment and real estate. Ram offers a deep understanding and appreciation of both eastern and western ethos. He attributes his equanimity in dealing with both his personal and professional life from a combination of oriental perseverance and an appreciation for western dynamism and competitiveness.
