The executive secretary is the go-between for the boss and the executive assistant but with much less power. The executive assistant handles business related to the boss, both work and personal. The secretary arranges appointments, juggles the boss's agenda in general relating to business, and not personal.

Executive Assistant's profile is more of an analytical nature. He is almost the right hand of his boss. The word "assistant" itself indicates that he assists his boss in carrying out tasks. In contrast, when we talk about a secretary, their work is more of a routine nature and highly repetitive, requiring low analytical skills. The secretary's job is more about doing as directed, while the assistant's job is more about doing as required with an analytical blend of the mind.
