OUR TEAM

SNEZANA PEJIC, Program Director / Founder / Educator
Snezana Pejic, Educator and Founder of The Etiquette Academy of New England, is a soft skills coach and advocate. After spending years managing teams and working in corporate America where she observed individuals struggle with navigating through social settings, Ms. Pejic was inspired to build The Etiquette Academy of New England and share her knowledge and enthusiasm for professional etiquette, protocol and leadership helping individuals and teams improve the way they communicate, interact and work together.
Ms. Pejic’s customer service and professional etiquette knowledge comes from training in royal protocol and etiquette while working for His Late Majesty King Hussein of Jordan at the Royal Jordanian Air Force, a private royal airline. During the four years she spent in His Majesty’s protocol service, Ms. Pejic also served as an assistant to the Chairman’s Office where she was able to help the Royal Jordanian commercial airline improve its level of customer service in the air and on the ground.
Ms. Pejic’s leadership and team building background stems from years in the investment banking industry, where she managed bank teams by nurturing relationships and communication with high-end clients.
It was during her years at Boston University, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration and a master’s degree in finance and e-commerce, that Ms. Pejic observed the cultural barriers and challenges her peers faced when integrating into the BU and Boston community. She learned first hand the importance of preserving one’s cultural heritage and customs while understanding and embracing the new way to live naturally in the New England environment. Extensive research as well as collaboration with Dr. Ann Copeland, published author of several books, was the basis for the Cultural Understanding and Diversity program.
