1.0              INTRODUCTION

1.1       BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

            A leader can be seen as one who occupies the highest position in a organization, influencing his subordinate to achieve group objectives in a give situation. This is to say that leadership is vested in the leader. According to Nwosu (1996) “Leadership is a managerial ability to accomplish group goals by working with and through the secretary who is sometimes referred to as partner to the Boss”

The success or failure of any business organization is often times, determined by the manager’s leadership style. The productivity of an organization depends highly on the leadership style of the manager. The productivity of the secretary who is an integral part of the entire organization personnel is also affected by her manager’s leadership styles.

Nwagbara (1984) defines “Leadership as a function of the relationship between the leader, the follower, and the task situational characteristic”. In spites of the various definitions given by different authors, three important elements-the leaders, the subordinates and the goals or objectives stand out in the concept of leadership.

The leadership adopted by a managers determines the relationship that exists between him and the secretary, the extent of motivation of the secretary and level of productivity.
