No, definitely not.
The 'word' Secretary is just so old-fashioned and since I support one individual and his programme teams (as I have been doing at various levels since I started with this company), I consider myself to be a PA, not a Secretary.
I don't sit and type all day and I don't take minutes (done by prog manager or equivalent, PAs do not attend technical or prog meetings). I do however manage my boss's diary and schedule meetings, but he is very self-sufficient as are most of the Managers/Directors here.
I guess the term "Secretaries" is easier to refer to than "PAs" eg. the Secretaries are all in a meeting, as opposed to the PAs are all in a meeting. That aside I believe the reason why our job titles have never been changed is, the company doesn't think it's important or see a need to change it.
