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.
