- Much more than secretaries -

Aline de Oliveira

Make and serve coffee, file documents, answer phones, send telegrams ... the classic stereotype that marked the secretaries for a long time, there were only a few jokes biased. Gradually, these professionals have been gaining share in the labor market and, ultimately, the world began to see the Executive Secretariat with different eyes. As the executives themselves, these characters are becoming increasingly important for organizations of all sectors.

This professional development has contributed greatly to the growth and development of the area. If before the attendants were taken as 'nannies' executives today its functions have been processed and ampliadas.As tasks are no longer support, but to complement the activities.

This multifunctional feature has attracted the eyes of various industries. Therefore, the playing field of the registry is getting wider. The professional secretariat can act both in public and private organizations and in small, medium and large.

Bussiness for secretaries

secretary is an administrative assistant in business office administration.
The executive secretary (sometimes called administrative assistant) has a myriad of administrative duties. Traditionally, these duties were mostly related to correspondence, such as the typing out of letters. The advent of word processing has significantly reduced the time that such duties require, with the result that many new tasks have come under the purview of the secretary. These might include managing budgets and doing bookkeeping, maintaining websites, and making travel arrangements. Secretaries might manage all the administrative details of running a high level conference or arrange the catering for a typical lunch meeting. Often executives will ask their assistant to take meeting minutes and prepare meeting documents for review. They may also do personnel paperwork which used to be thought of as a Human Relations function; this might also include understanding the complex rules regarding Visa and Immigration.
To be successful today the executive assistant must have a broad level of skills and be creative in managing new situations.
