The assistant to the president is not the secretary to the president. One of the biggest differences between the two is that the president&;s secretary is the most basic job under the guidance of the president, while the assistant to the president is to assist the president&;s work, and the focus of the work includes consulting, suggesting, implementing, coordinating and assisting management.
