Besides, long term plans usually don't show results nearly fast enough for the planner to be embraced. Our current culture values the here and the now much more than the there and the then. People want to see results right away.
That's the problem.
I've worked in business all my life, and there's a saying about having a vision for the future, no matter if it is a vision for your current project, the next 5 years, or for your own retirement 50 years from now:
Without a vision and a plan to implement it, you will probably accomplish something or get somewhere, but it won't likely be what you wanted to accomplish or where you wanted to be.
