Hola Sandra.
Confieso que jamás había escuchado este término. Al indagar en Internet, entontré lo siguiente y sól en ello, baso mi respuesta. Ojalá te ayude:-):
"NewMindsets is available as a consulting tool that can be used in actual presentations or communications with clients e.g. on how to implement "stretch benchmarking," or use of experiments and prototypes to mobilize change, and have also become valuable means of providing remote group field support -- especially for those students working internationally."

Discussion
“Stretch” is the concept of aiming for very high breakthrough goals… setting goals outside of “your comfort zone.” The whole definition of a breakthrough is that we don’t know how to do it or how we are going to get there – so we are “stretching” ourselves…
Creo que se trata de esforzarse al máximo o llevar al extremo, pero no sé qué opinen ustedes.
