A secretary is a paid high official who handles a variety of critical and confidential tasks for an individual or for a company.
Depending on the type, nature, size, and scope of the organization, whether commercial, industrial, nonprofit, or educational, must designate a secretary to ensure the smooth conclusion of its operations. Additionally, a busy individual names secretaries.
A person who helps a specific person with everyday work or personal tasks is known as a personal assistant (PA), sometimes known as a personal aide or personal secretary (PS). It is a branch of secretarial work.
There is a demand for people with specialised knowledge and abilities in their respective industries as a result of technological innovation, an increase in the size of businesses, and heightened rivalry. The title "Secretary" is given to one such expert. Institutional secretaries are those chosen by institutions or organisations.
