ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Cabinet secretary

Okay, imagine you're playing a big game of pretend with your friends where you're all part of a really important group that makes big decisions for your pretend country. You need someone to help you keep track of all the important things you talk about and make sure everything runs smoothly. That's basically what a Cabinet Secretary does in real life!

The Cabinet Secretary is a really important person who helps the leader of the country (we'll call them the President or Prime Minister) make big decisions and keep track of everything that's going on. They're like the person in charge of a lot of important paperwork and making sure everyone is working together properly.

The Cabinet Secretary works with other really important people called Cabinet Ministers who each have a different job, like making sure there's enough food for everyone or making sure everyone is safe in the country. The Cabinet Secretary helps them all work together and make good decisions.

Sometimes, the Cabinet Secretary also gets to talk to really important people from other countries and help the President or Prime Minister with special events or meetings. They even get to go to really fancy meetings sometimes!

So basically, the Cabinet Secretary is like the important person who helps make sure everything runs smoothly and works really hard to help the President or Prime Minister be the best leader they can be!
