Singapore-based British Theatre Playhouse Academy teams up with Global Coach Robin Kermode – Learn the Art of Online Communication

“The key on Video Conferencing is to for us to be even more ‘human’ than normal. Our voice and image are both digitised and pixelated in this very technical medium. We have to make sure that our voice, body language, and the words we say are kind and deeply ‘human’ so that despite the technology, we come across as a warm, open human being wanting to connect with other human beings. That is how we make a connection to build,” says Robin Kermode.

The British Theatre Playhouse Academy, Singapore (a sub-brand and training arm of the British Theatre Playhouse incorporated in Singapore in 2004), in partnership with Robin Kermode, will enable you to upgrade your online communication, land your message and connect with your audience.

“We are in the world of Zoom these days and the future of work has changed. The way of working post-pandemic is going to be a sustainable and flexible hybrid system. Employees want to choose where they want to work and studies show productivity has been higher. Virtual communication to maintain that connection with our clients, teams, colleagues, lecturers, teachers and students are inevitable, where working remotely is currently the norm. Learning the art of online communication is key to pitching, presenting, persuading and landing your message to achieve what needs to be done. So, the British Theatre Playhouse has forged a partnership with Robin Kermode through its newly established Academy to bring Singapore a ‘branded’ global coach on the Art of Online Communication, after a wildly successful Singapore launch with a Video Conferencing Masterclass in October 2020, attracting an audience of more than 100 participants, Robin returns with a programme tailored to meet the essential needs of today.”
