The secretary’s work is based on human relations to a very large extent.

The secretary’s relationship with the people will be much easier if he or she understand the reaction of human being to various situations, which may arise in the course of normal day’s business.

Some of the numerous services the secretaries rendered are; to support and assist the managers as well as the directors of the company with their work, making appointment for the boss, receiving callers, receiving visitors to the organization and making telephone calls. Other secretaries perform a mite range of human and material resources and also assist the boss in implementation of policies and sometimes attending meetings on behalf of the boss. The secretary has to make a detail note of the proceedings of the entire meeting and this includes documenting the activity and the matter discussed during the meeting.

The boss and the secretary should view each other as professionals in different field and recognize that there is inter-dependence of roles regarding their work. The secretary should see the boss as a partner and try as much possible to play the role of junior partner and also to learn how to apologize gracefully and to accept constructive criticism from the boss as well as the people they relate with in their surrounding. In an organization, a secretary comes across a lot of people and it is the secretary’s responsibility to cooperate with them at all times, he or she also should ensure that there is no conflict of loyalty which may arise when a supervisor attempts, to exercise authority in relation to the use of his or her time.
