Secretaries are undoubtedly a critical part of any organization, be it a large corporation, government office, non-governmental organization, service utility or a privately owned financial, commercial or industrial undertaking.

Today's secretaries and PAs are managers.  It seems they manage just about everything: resources, such as budgets; materials (stationery, computer accessories); machines (the latest technology) and of course people!   They organize their employer in terms of time (the diary), events (meetings, business trips), and information (letters, agendas, reports, business documents).   

Receptionists and secretaries are charged with a responsibility that may have a lasting impact on the success of an organization—making a good first impression. These workers are often the first representatives of an organization a visitor encounters, so they need to be courteous, professional, and helpful. They answer telephones, transfer phone calls, greet visitors, gather personal and financial information, respond to inquiries, provide information about the organization and perform a variety of other office duties including opening and sorting mail, collecting and distributing parcels, making fax transmittals and deliveries, arranging appointments and updating appointment calendars, preparing travel vouchers, and performing basic bookkeeping, word processing, and filing. In addition, they contribute to the security of an organization by helping to monitor the access of visitors and providing identification cards and arranging for escorts to take visitors to the proper office. Despite the widespread use of automated answering systems or voice mail, many secretaries still take messages and inform other employees of visitors’ arrivals or cancellation of an appointment.

Nowadays secretaries are often relieved from dictation and typing. Office automation have led them to assume a wide range of new responsibilities. A variety of office equipment, such as multiline telephone systems and fax machines, photocopiers and personal computers, aid secretaries in these new tasks. They use PC to run spreadsheet, word processing, database management, desktop publishing, and graphics programs—tasks previously handled by managerial and professional staff. Many secretaries now conduct research on the Internet and learn to operate new office technologies. They provide high-level administrative support by conducting research, preparing statistical reports, handling information requests, and performing clerical functions such as preparing correspondence, receiving visitors, arranging conference calls, and scheduling meetings. May also train and supervise lower-level clerical staff.

But their core responsibilities have remained much the same—performing a variety of administrative and clerical duties necessary to run an organization efficiently.
