Moonshots are also called **“10x thinking”**, **“stretch goals”** or “extremely ambitious”. These are goals that **seem impossible to achieve** – goals that go far beyond what a team and its employees consider possible. Moonshots are designed to encourage teams and employees to **rethink** the **way they work** and **get** them out of their individual **comfort zones**. They should consider what measures need to be taken to achieve **not just a 10 percent better**>result, but a result that is 10 times greater – hence the term **“10x thinking”**. This gives rise to **completely new ideas and measures** that would not have been possible if the goal had only been a marginal improvement (e.g. by 10%). The “10x thinking” triggers reflection on completely new approaches. The term alludes to the legendary announcement by US President [John F. Kennedy](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_F._Kennedy) on May 25, 1961, to land a man on the moon by the end of the decade. [to land a man on the moon](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondlandung) and then bring him safely back to earth. The rocket expert **[Wernher von Braun](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernher_von_Braun)**who worked at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, USA, said at the time that the current **rockets** would have to be**ten times more powerful**to achieve this. The term “10x thinking” can be traced back to this. However, if the approach is applied incorrectly, i.e. not thought through holistically, it can certainly lead to problems such as **excessive demands, demotivation** and the **risk of** employee **[burnout](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burn-out)**. It is therefore important to implement this tried-and-tested method professionally and holistically in your company to ensure maximum success. **You can look forward to an exciting moonshot workshop.** **WE OKR** - [Deutsch](https://okrexperten.de/okr-workshop/moonshot-10x-workshop/) - [English](https://okrexperts.com/okr-workshops/moonshot-10x-workshop/)
