Bio
R. Mumbi Gichuhi
Lucas candour makes his approach to coaching refreshing yet reflective. One of the first things one notices about Lucas is his authenticity and his earnest desire to help one to succeed. Through his legendary humour, he's able to help one articulate what one wants to achieve, and he does so without one's realisation. I also know him to be consistent, if his now five year blog, in which he posts every Friday, is anything to go by. I would, and do, highly recommend him to anyone, especially one looking to navigate the infamous midlife. In fact he runs a syndicated programme that does just that - The Half Time Institute here in Nairobi.

Lucas has an innate and genuine motivation to work for the common good in various areas that he is engaged in. His Public Service record speaks for itself especially in the area of Sports. He constantly seeks self-improvement in order to offer better services and leadership. Among his key wins during his tenure as Chairman of the Kenya Golf Union (2018-2019) was the growth of Junior Golf in Kenya where he spearheaded efforts to ensure that Golf clubs around the country had access to junior kits in order to facilitate the entry of more juniors into the sport. He was instrumental in the successful hosting of the first main European-Tour event in Kenya the 2019 Magical Kenya Open and continues to serve on the Board of the Kenya Open Golf Limited.
