Counting number of tasks per Assigned To contact

My task list contains parent, sub-parent, then children tasks.  The workstream leader is assigned to both the parent and sub-parent tasks, and possibly sub-tasks as well.

 

I need to count the number of tasks per "Assigned To" contact.  It would be ideal if parent tasks are not included in that number, but it's manageable if they are.  

 

I have tried this formula via an external sheet but it is coming up as unparseable: 

 

=SUMIF({External Workspace Name}, [Task Name]1:[Task Name]594,"", [Assigned To]1:[Assigned To]594))

 

The count doesn't have to be captured in a separate sheet.  A dashboard might be a better option.  However, I am not familiar with those yet.
