1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In any organization time is rated very highly.  A secretary that does not work with time cannot be productive in an office.   So the secretary must know how to manage her time properly, as well as that of her boss to be to be able to achieve the organizations set goals. Time   can   be   described   as   the   one   commodity   that   is   unbiased, available to all in equal amounts, it does not cost us anything monetarily, and is completely at our own disposal.  We cannot store it, we cannot spend it in advance, we never seem to have enough of it and it is not possible to retrieve it once used.  Time wasting on the other hand has been observed as the   major   cause   of   secretary’s   poor   performance   on   the   job.     Good secretaries are those who can manage themselves as well as others.  Time according to Bennett (1989) is the inexplicable raw material of everything. Time   can   be   given   different   definitions.   In   a   day   of   24   hours sometimes we hear some people say that the day is too slow while others say it is fast.  Even a year can be said to be can be said to be long or too short. It is a popular saying that time is money.  Invariably, it is important that time should be properly utilized or well managed. An efficient secretary arranges her day’s work according to priority in order to meet up with the boss’s target, thereby achieving greater result in the work place
