Private Secretary

A private secretary is a person employed by a busy and an eminent person to assist him in all possible­ works including taking decisions from him. He has to represent his employer to do his private and confidential work. In many cases, the employer might not have good knowledge of English and has no idea about writing letters correctly. In such cases the private secretary­ must be a conscientious worker capable of understanding the full implications of any correspondence­ and sometimes he may have to alter, improve, rectify or completely rewrite the dictation given by his employer and place it before the employer for his signature.

Of course he will have to do it very tactfully so that his employer would not be offended owing to his lack of knowledge or education­. In many occasions, he has to draft of letters, reports or speeches himself on behalf of his employer. A private secretary must be a good short-hand typist but at the same time he must have other qualities.
