What does the future hold for business communications?
Anna Burke is Co-Founder and Managing Director of Anglesey-based creative visual design agency, Animated Technologies. They are 'visual communicators', specialising in using virtual reality and augmented reality to help businesses and other organisations - even schools - to get complex messages across in a visual way.
As well as helping others to share their products and services effectively, Anna is clear about the importance of good communication in all aspects of business. In this episode, she chats to Gemma about how 'sales' can be approached in a collaborative way; being honest with colleagues about the effects of hormone fluctuations and monthly cycles; and why good networking isn't all about talking.
Beth sydd gan y dyfodol i gyfathrebu busnes?
Anna Burke yw Cyd-sefydlydd a Rheolwr Gyfarwyddwr yr asiantaeth dylunio gweledol creadigol sydd wedi'i lleoli yn Ynys Môn, Animated Technologies. Maent yn 'gyfathrebwyr gweledol', gan arbenigo mewn defnyddio realiti rhithwir a realiti estynedig i helpu busnesau a sefydliadau eraill - hyd yn oed ysgolion - i gyfleu negeseuon cymhleth mewn ffordd weledol.
Yn ogystal â helpu eraill i rannu eu cynnyrch a'u gwasanaethau'n effeithiol, mae Anna'n glir am bwysigrwydd cyfathrebu da ym mhob agwedd o fusnes. Yn y bennod hon, mae'n sgwrsio â Gemma am sut y gellir mynd at 'werthiant' mewn ffordd gydweithredol; bod yn onest gyda chydweithwyr am effeithiau amrywiadau hormonau a chylchoedd misol; a pham nad yw rhwydweithio da yn ymwneud â siarad.
