Solution
(1) A secretary is an individual appointed by another individual or individuals or an organisation to collect and record essential information and to assist the employer in carrying out his work smoothly.
(2) In modern times, a secretary performs a number of functions such as conducting correspondence, maintaining accounts and records of business operations, assisting the Chairman while conducting meetings, writing the minutes of the meetings and complying with the statutory requirements, if any.
(3) A secretary may be appointed by a busy person or a company or a cooperative society or a government department or even a non-profit making institution. He has to execute the plans and policies according to the directives of the Board of Directors or the Managing Committee.
(4) A corporate body or any other institution or company or a firm although recognized as a person under the provision of laws cannot work as a secretary because it does not have body, soul, feelings, judgement creativity, thinking ability or decision-making power. It cannot perform any function as like an individual or human being. Hence the secretary is always an individual.
