Meet Siya Mapoko

​Greetings!
 
In 2015, when my son was born, I asked myself…
“What if there was a way for business owners (and busy executives) to take all the time-off they want, to spend with people they love – while growing their businesses exponentially?”
 
My team and I then shifted our focus and redesigned MRI (our company) so that we can help our clients do exactly that.
