In project management, a task is an activity that needs to be accomplished within a defined period of time or by a deadline to work towards work-related goals.
It is a small, essential piece of a job that serves as a means to differentiate various components of a project.
A task can be broken down into assignments, which should also have a defined start and end date or a deadline for completion.
Coordinated human interaction takes on the role of combining the integration of time, energy, effort, ability, and resources of multiple individuals to meet a common goal.
Coordination can also be thought of as the critical mechanism that links or ties together the efforts on the singular level to that of the larger task being completed by multiple members.
