#258 Jason Dierking Ep. 2- BSAR
Wednesday, 21 January, 2026
In part two of my conversation with Jason Dierking, we pick up right where we left off and go even deeper into leadership, identity, and what it really looks like to build a staff and a culture that lasts. Jason talks about how he structures his sports performance department, how he intentionally develops his coaches, and why character has to come first if you want sustained excellence. We get into the reality of retention, growth, trust, communication, and why leaders have to create an environment where people feel valued, challenged, and capable of doing meaningful work. Jason also opens up about the importance of knowing who you are beyond your job title and why identity has to be grounded in something bigger than wins, roles, or achievements. From there, we dive into his work with Louisville swimming and diving and really break down what goes into training world class athletes in a sport that requires a completely different level of precision, creativity, and understanding. Jason talks about how he blends culture, athletic development, resiliency, and science, and why collaboration with sport coaches is critical to doing it right. We also spend time talking about their training facility, how it has evolved, and why environment matters when you are trying to develop champions. Jason closes this conversation with a powerful reminder about staying grounded in your values and knowing who you are no matter what role you are in. This is a thoughtful, honest, and incredibly insightful continuation of our discussion, and I think you are going to get a lot out of it. Big thanks to podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, for making these episodes possible!
