What does it take to build a winning culture that lasts?

In this episode of Coach Talk, Coach Pierre sits down with veteran educator and multi-sport coach Nathan Rothdiener, who brings over 20 years of coaching and teaching experience to the conversation.

From leading girls tennis and basketball programs to shaping student-athletes in the classroom, Coach Rothdiener shares the leadership principles, motivational strategies, and life lessons that define successful teams. The discussion explores how coaching has evolved over the past two decades, what today’s athletes need most, and why effort, discipline, and character still outweigh the scoreboard.

Nathan also discusses his passion for the Denver Broncos, how his fandom began, and whether championship-level organizations influence the way he builds culture within his own teams.

Whether you're a coach, athlete, educator, or sports fan, this episode delivers valuable insight on leadership, resilience, and creating environments where athletes — and people — can thrive.
