Only a good listener can be a good speaker or writer, so I believe first of all the listening skill should be checked and then writing and speaking. In this process the usage of correct words in a specific situation is very important. I.e whatever the task or situation is given the secretary shouldn't get loose his/her cool and choose the words of moderate kind I.e not aggressive or with a hint of aggression. Thank you!

A secretary with effective communication skill which includes professional drafting skill and effective vocal communication skills in the diplomatic manner will be ideal as he would be frequently dealing with clients, managers, subordinates who may approach the secretary in various unpredicted situations. So a secretary should be able to convince him in most effective manner that the other party feels satisfied and consolidated

When hiring for your secretary look for these3 components: 

1. Verbal messages - The words she/he choose

2. Paraverbal messages - How she/he say the words

3. Non-verbal messages - Body Language 

These3 components are used to send clear and concise messages also to make sure that messages are clear understood.

Listening, I mean to let others talk to know what's needed before talking too much.
