Contexto cultural

In Indian companies, 'ऊँचा लक्ष्य' is often used during 'Appraisal' season to encourage employees to exceed their KPIs. Students are culturally conditioned to set 'ऊँचे लक्ष्य' like getting into IITs or AIIMS, reflecting the high value placed on competitive exams. The concept of 'Moksha' (liberation) is often described as the ultimate 'ऊँचा लक्ष्य' of human life in Hindu philosophy. With the rise of the startup scene in India (Silicon Plateau), 'ऊँचा लक्ष्य' has become synonymous with 'disrupting the market'.
