Roneagle Spotlight: Rodrick E. Points

Rodrick E. Points (born May 1971) is a native of New Orleans, La. and is a 1989 graduate of McDonogh #35Senior High. He has a BS degree in Computer Information Systems from Xavier University of Louisiana, an MBA from Amberton University, and a DBA from Walden University.

He pursued the DBA in Leadership program not for a title or hedonistic purposes, but because he wanted to expand his leadership knowledge; a talent he strongly believes very few people possess.

He currently resides in Grand Prairie, TX (a suburb of Dallas/Fort Worth).

Points heads his own management-consulting firm (II the Point, LLC.), which helps business owners and professionals understand and implement the full concept of organizational leadership as well as equip them with the necessary tools to help their businesses and employees grow.  Those tools will include courses in Leadership, Diversity and Inclusion, Customer Service, Conflict Management Resolution, Effective Communication, and Organization Management.

He sits on several Boards of Directors, and is currently the president of two alumni associations.

He sharpened his leadership skills as a member of the One Hundred Black Men of Greater Dallas, Inc., a non-profit, mentoring organization whose vision “seeks to serve as a beacon of leadership by utilizing our diverse talents to create environments where our children are motivated to achieve, and to empower our people to become self-sufficient shareholders in the economic and social fabric of the communities we serve.”  As a member for the past 16 years, he chaired and served on several committees, which ultimately lead to him being elected as president.
