Storytellers
in Residence.
An ongoing presence that identifies, coaches, captures, and elevates the stories that matter, all year, not a single event.
Apply for Your OrganizationOne ongoing practice,
not one event.
Storytellers in Residence is Dear World's ongoing presence inside your organization, an all-year practice that identifies, coaches, captures, and elevates the stories that matter. It is what comes after the keynote, the stage, and the portraits, so the momentum from a single day never has to reset.
It is built for organizations that already know one event isn't enough, leadership teams, culture and comms functions, and companies coming off a Dear World activation who want the story-finding practice to keep going. The outcome: storytelling becomes how the organization leads, listens, learns, and builds culture, a repeatable system, not a single event.
