Great place to work - Avis employé Student Enrolment Advisor Risepoint

Having spent the past year at Risepoint, one of the things I appreciate most is that the organization genuinely values people. There is a strong focus on collaboration, innovation, and creating an environment where employees can do meaningful work while maintaining balance in their lives. The mission is important, but so is the recognition that the people advancing that mission matter too. For professionals passionate about education, workforce development, healthcare, and creating opportunities for others, Risepoint offers a chance to contribute to work that has lasting impact.

Amazing and inclusive workplace for all

Competitive benefits, flexible work arrangements, and opportunities to work on meaningful initiatives that can positively impact customers and communities.

The organization's greatest challenge is leadership effectiveness and modernization. Despite operating in a rapidly evolving business environment, many management practices, decision-making processes, and organizational structures feel rooted in an earlier era. Collaboration across departments is limited, with teams often operating in silos rather than around shared organizational goals. In my experience, change management is inconsistent, communication is fragmented, and major decisions can feel disconnected from operational realities. Many leaders appear to have advanced through tenure rather than leadership development, resulting in overly directive management styles, micromanagement, and limited cross-functional understanding. There are also notable gaps in business development and customer relationship management. Customer interactions often feel transactional rather than relationship-driven, which can hinder long-term growth and retention. The organization has invested heavily in systems and tools, but leadership capabilities have not evolved at the same pace, limiting the company's ability to fully leverage those investments and compete effectively in today's market.
