The error in the sentence is the use of the singular reflexive pronoun "himself" after "each of them," which is a plural phrase; the correct pronoun is the plural "themselves" to agree with "them". The corrected sentence is: "He told his staff that each of them should be able to carry out the task themselves".
Find the error: He told his staff that each of them should be able to carry out the task himself.
