Connor Murphy has spent most of his career building both digital and institutional networks. At Datahug, Connor built what was described as 'LinkedIn on Steroids' for large enterprises like KPMG and Deloitte. With Bridge, he is building a tool to serve people he calls ‘connectors’ which allows them to help their network succeed, initially by helping them make better introductions.
In this episode we talk about:
- Cultural differences around how people connect
- How the future of work will make our personal networks more important
- How LinkedIn isn’t really a network
- What characteristics ‘connectors’ share and the magical moment of the introduction
- Common pitfalls we experience during the introduction process
- How introductions build social capital
- That sometimes connectors feel uncomfortable asking for help
