How to Network When You're Introverted and Don't Know Anyone with Tzufit Herling

  1. How to Network When You're Introverted and Don't Know Anyone with Tzufit Herling Limor Bergman Gross 32:53

You walk into the room. You don’t know anyone. So you find a spot near the wall, you look at your phone, and you wait for someone to talk to you. And usually, no one does.

Tzufit Herling knows that feeling, because that used to be her. She’s built communities for a living for almost a decade; she’s advised founders and organizations around the world, and three years ago she moved to Portugal without a single connection or the language. In this episode, she walks through exactly how a quiet, introverted person builds a real network on purpose, without pretending to be someone louder.

In this conversation:

  • Why “just network more” is useless advice, and what to actually do first
  • How to build connections in a place (or a job) where you know no one
  • How to choose which communities are worth your time when there are a hundred of them
  • Why giving value first is the whole game, especially if you hate self-promotion
  • How to walk into a room full of men and not stand there circling alone

About Tzufit: Tzufit Herling helps organizations, founders, and professionals grow through communities. She’s the founder of Connecteur, a certified Meta community management company, and a Facebook Certified Community Manager who has spent years building professional communities across ecosystems and continents. She learned all of this as a self-described deep introvert, which is exactly why her approach works for the rest of us.
