It's amazing how we have become, or have limited ourselves, into being "task managers". What makes a "task thinker"? Someone who is usually educated, either with lots of formal education, or on-the-job learning, not training. Task thinkers are able to problem solve, think outside of the box, and more quickly adapt and overcome problems. I believe anyone can be a task manager, but I want task thinkers. I want team members who look for opportunities, not obstacles.
