ABOUT CRAIG LUCAS
Craig is the Founder of Authenica (Authenica.com), a company focused on the activation of human potential through its continuum of event experiences, created and curated programs, value-added services and content.
His commitment to helping others pursue excellence was shaped by his participation in the Walt Disney World College Program 35+ years ago Through Authenica, Craig has hosted 55 event experiences to date with over 4,500 company owners, executives, centers of influence and employee groups having participated in one or more events built around themes of importance featuring no agenda provided to attendees (to keep participants present in each moment) and no stated deliverables (to not limit the attendees’ experience). The end result triggers epiphanies and discoveries unique to each.
Host venues for past Authenica event experiences include the United States Naval Academy, Air Force Academy, Greenbrier, Broadmoor, The Cloister on Sea Island, Lodge at Torrey Pines and Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Past event presenters include author Ken Blanchard, United States Navy SEAL Commander Mark McGinnis, Vice Admiral Ted Carter of the U.S. Naval Academy, Lt. Generals Jay Silveria and Michelle Johnson of the Air Force Academy, Hall of Fame Gold Jackets, Anthony Munoz and Bruce Matthews, Sports Agent Leigh Steinberg, Debbie & Hilary, Jeff Bloomfield, Dr. Srini Pillay, Katie Spotz and Nitra Rucker, Director of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion for the United States Olympic Committee.
In August 2017, Craig premiered Masterpiece, a film that features content from past Authenica events and a storyline that honors the “in between”, the bridge between the two extremes of adversity and triumph. Masterpiece showcases elements that roll up to the broader emotional intelligence theme- candor, empathy, transparency, vulnerability as a strength and inclusion- through the life experiences of notable others. Craig is a 1986 graduate of Kent State University, has served on numerous non-profit boards over his 35-year professional career and enjoys connecting with those in authentic pursuit of personal and professional achievement. He is married to his wife, Anna, and has two children, Ava and Carson.
