What is a task force?
Task forces are work groups typically constituting specialists in particular areas brought together for a specific goal. Normally, they will be disbanded after completing the assigned objective.
For instance, a task force created to find a company's new offices might include a commercial realtor, an assessor, a member of the board, an administrator and a person with knowledge of what the organization needs. Each person on the team has to complete their specific objective.
Taskforces are used by lots of different organizations so come in lots of different shapes and sizes. The main thing is to ensure you have the right people for the task. Too many people especially if they aren’t going to contribute to your ultimate goal, will only slow things down.
