 General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Once Stalin came to dominate the Politburo, the position of General Secretary became synonymous with that of party leader and de facto ruler of the USSR.
The General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (First Secretary in 1953-1966) was the title synonymous with leader of the Soviet Union after Vladimir Lenin's death in 1924.
From 1934 on, Stalin increasingly preferred to sign documents as just "Secretary of the Central Committee" and there are no official references to the post between the XIXth Party Congress in October 1952 and Stalin's death on March 5, 1953, but there was never any doubt that he remained in charge.

 Brad Cox, Ph.D.
When Mikhail Gorbachev was elected General Secretary of the Communist Party, he had done little to distinguish himself from his comrades in the Central Committee or later in the Politburo.
In July 1985, soon after Gorbachev's election as General Secretary, he is said to have persuaded Andrei Gromyko, the oldest member of the Politburo and the most enduring foreign minister in the Soviet Union, to step down and take the largely ceremonial post of President of the USSR.
One big difference between the 20th Congress of the Communist Party in 1956, where Khrushchev gave his "secret" report, and this conference is that the earlier meeting was a _delegated_ body that represented the Party as a whole.

In the Soviet Union for example, the General Secretary of the Communist Party did not necessarily hold a state office like president or prime minister to effectively control the system of government.
In Marxist-Leninist states, the party is seen as the "vanguard of the people" and therefore usually has the power to control the state, and the non-state party officials in the politburo generally hold extreme power.
A Politburo is the executive organization for a number of political parties, most notably for Communist Parties.
