I hope the Leadership prof or one of the other learners could share their thoughts on this principle- &#8220;The readiness of an adult to learn is closely related to the developmental tasks of his or her social role.&#8221; ( Knowles, 2005)<\/p>\n<p>Another observation he makes it that he can share his learning with learners younger than him. This shows his altruistic leaning. I believe adult learners can be role models or mentors to younger learners.<\/p>\n<p>It is interesting how in the last paragraph he contrasts his motives for learning now vs when he did his previous degree in manufacturing. This goes to show how we evolve as we grow; our goals and motives also change .<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Reference<\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">Knowles, Malcolm S.; Swanson, Richard A.; Holton, Elwood F.
