In episode 22 of Raising the Bar George Sourris from Empire Legal sits down with Italian Knight and community icon Mariangela Stagnitti, who has spent over 40 years helping people get on their feet, not just financially, but in life.
Starting as a batch clerk in a local bank branch, Mariangela has built a career grounded in relationships, trust and showing up for her clients across multiple generations.
We cover:
– The journey: how Mariangela went from a batch clerk to becoming a trusted name in Brisbane’s Italian community and the lessons from her early years in banking that still shape how she works today.
– Empowering women: why she’s so passionate about helping women become financially independent, particularly through property and how she supports those navigating major life transitions like divorce, loss and starting over.
– Legacy and impact: the growth of the Italian Business Women’s Network with over 80,000 members, what it means to give back at that level and how her work has been recognised with Knighthood from the Italian President.
If you work in real estate, finance or deal with people making big financial decisions, this episode is a reminder that relationships and trust are what actually build long term success.
