Bite Size: How to Lead with Questions, Not Answers | Michael Bevan & Jake Trbojevic

It’s a reminder that growth often starts with awareness, not advice.NRL star Jake Trbojevic then shares what it’s like to be on the receiving end of that approach. He explains how Bevan’s questions helped him break out of familiar patterns in training, play with more freedom, and open up more honestly within his team.A short listen on leadership, trust, and why the right question can change everything.You can find Bevo at his Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bevo_michaelbevan/?hl=enYou can find Jake at his Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jaketrbojevic/?hl=en Use Code "PQPODCAST10" to get 10% off your Lumo Coffee order:https://lumocoffee.com/ Interested in sharing your story?
