visionless
Lacking any vision
Visionless means lacking vision—either literally unable to see, or figuratively without foresight, imagination, or guiding purpose.
A visionless leader fails to articulate goals or inspire direction: The company floundered under visionless management.
The word carries stronger criticism than simply "unimaginative," suggesting a fundamental absence where vision should be.
