Path 7. Program Visibility

Functioning as a reading pathway map, a three by four grid presents tiles representing each of the twelve chapters collected in the volume. Tiles four, five, six, and twelve are color-coded to indicate the four chapters discussed in the response to this pathway. Effective program leadership often involves increasing program visibility using all available communicative resources. Chapters in this path explore the utility in and possibilities of using graphics to represent program values, events, and curricula to audiences within and beyond our programs.

Figure 1. A hand illustrated map of program visibility in <em>Radiant Figures</em>. The sketch features an island with a dragon and a mountain range running vertically through the land mass. The left side of the island features grassy plains annotated with positive qualities of visual rhetorics in everyday administrative contexts. The right side of the map includes cautions, concerns, and perilous dimensions of visual rhetorics in everyday administrative contexts.
