Linda Felder

President/Chief Executive Officer

​

Linda Felder is the kind of social entrepreneur who proves if there’s a will, there’s a way.

​

Back in 2004, she cashed in her 401k from the Transportation Security Administration to launch a nonprofit called Linda Felder House of Etiquette which is a 501C3 Non-profit organization, drawing on her early training as a seamstress and fashion designer to establish a school in Catonsville, Md., where she taught youth sewing, modeling, physical education, and etiquette.

 

“Etiquette is just a way of life—being able to communicate with others, go out to dinner at a nice restaurant, do well on a job interview, or travel anywhere in the world,” she says. “It’s the foundation that allows us to feel comfortable in all different environments.”
