Guest Speaker
Mayur Gondhea is the founder of CubeLynx a financial modelling / spreadsheet consultancy that was founded on social principles. Mayur set up the company following his son’s diagnosis of Autism. He was acutely aware of the high unemployment rates for autistic people and felt financial modelling would be an excellent career path for neurodiverse people. CubeLynx specialises in supporting the following sectors: regulation, renewables, property, impact investment and charities.

Philippa has worked in infrastructure finance (financing schools, hospitals, roads etc) for over 30 years in both the private and public sectors – she currently works for the Cabinet Office with a focus on the Government's decarbonisation agenda. As a strong supporter of developing talent, Philippa is an internal mentor and coach for the Civil Service - she is an ILM Level 7 qualified Executive Coach and Mentor and has Senior Practitioner accreditation with the EMCC. Philippa is a Non-Executive Director on the UK board of the EMCC. Philippa has a special interest in coaching and mentoring people who are neurodivergent - this interest was born out of a family member's diagnosis of ADHD and Autism. This interest has also led Philippa to undertake a PhD at Oxford Brookes Business School looking at the language of coaching people with ADHD in the workplace.
