The concentration is also on the secretary in order to reduce generalization and focus on a specific management personnel. A general introduction of chapter is presented to relate management to motivation as well as the secretary to management. A literature review is also given to see the direction others related literatures similar to the researchers’ title have followed.  In doing so, attempts have been made to improve on notice lapses.  This is joined in a chapter with theoretical framework of motivation.  Therein the researchers dealt extensively into renowned theories including Abraham Maslow’s Hygiene Factors, McGregor’s theories X and Y, Frederick Herzberg’s theory, Victor Vroom’s expectancy theory. The researchers equally define the objectives of the study which include identifying motivation factors that affects secretary on job performance and identifying environments which make the secretary either efficient or inefficient.  As a prelude to the case study data analysis, a number of questions were asked each revolving round the stated objective.
