About

I'm a former professor of philosophy. I lead The Economist's programs on Critical Thinking and Business and AI, and I work with organizations around the world to help them think better about things that matter.

I’m Pranay, and my career—from teaching A-Level courses at 14 to becoming a philosophy professor and beyond—is a testament to a lifelong dedication to fostering deeper, more insightful thought.

I’ve collaborated with universities, start-ups, family businesses, wealth management firms, finance companies, and a variety of institutions worldwide, leveraging philosophical expertise and real-world insight to drive meaningful change.

At the heart of my journey lies a single, unifying belief: better thinking leads to better outcomes.

I’m known for creating spaces that invite deep reflection and authentic conversation—environments where people feel encouraged to push boundaries and discover new perspectives.

As Head Tutor for The Economist’s courses on Critical Thinking and Business & AI, I blend theory with practice, equipping leaders and teams with cognitive tools that fuel informed, strategic decision-making.

I thrive on those moments when a client’s face lights up with the sudden clarity of an insight, when an idea clicks and sparks a new way forward. This passion for facilitating “aha” moments drives my workshops and consultancy work, where I help people refine their thinking to make better, more informed decisions.

Let’s unlock your potential through better thinking—because better thinking is your winning edge.
