Bite Size: How to Lead with Questions, Not Answers | Michael Bevan & Jake Trbojevic
About this episode
The best coaches don’t always give answers. They ask questions that make you think differently about yourself, your game, and the moment you’re in.
Aussie cricket legend, Michael Bevan, reflects on the coaching lessons he’s picked up over decades at the highest level — and why knowing what to ask, when to ask it, can be more powerful than any instruction. 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.
