Top diplomatic administrator
Secretary General is the chief administrative officer of an international organization, most notably the United Nations.
The title combines secretary in its sense of a high-ranking official who handles correspondence and records with general to indicate authority over an entire organization rather than a single department.
The Secretary General addressed the assembly on matters of global security.
The role typically involves both administrative duties and diplomatic functions, serving as the public face of the organization.
