🎙️ Leading with Intention: Human Development, Culture, and Coaching Growth with Dr. Greg Lott (Otterbein University) 

In this episode of the Significant Coaching Podcast, Matt Rogers sits down with Dr. Greg Lott, Director of Athletics at Otterbein University, to explore what it means to lead with intention in collegiate athletics. Dr. Lott shares how a single message from his own college years shaped his approach to coaching, leadership, and student-athlete development—learn as much outside the classroom as inside it. 

The conversation dives into identity, emotional intelligence, and mental health in college athletics, and how coaches can create environments where young people grow as whole human beings. Dr. Lott also breaks down his practical framework for hiring coaches based on program needs—whether the moment calls for a recruiter, a tactician, or a culture-builder—and shares how Otterbein’s coaching pods foster collaboration, reflection, and continued professional growth.
