How does the quote "Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare." relate to Gap Analysis?

The quote "Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare." relates to Gap Analysis in the sense that having a vision (desired state) without taking action (implementing strategies) to reach it is merely a daydream. On the other hand, taking action without a clear vision can lead to uncoordinated efforts, wasted resources, and potential failure, which is a nightmare. Gap Analysis is a tool that helps organizations identify the gap between their current state and desired state (vision), and then develop and implement actions (strategies) to bridge this gap.

Question was asked on:

In their "Harvard Business Review" piece, researchers from RHR International senior leadership development firm, Paul Leinwand, Cesare Mainardi and Art Kleiner remind us that "Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare." The researchers outlined what senior leaders must do to wake up and close the strategy-to-execution gap.
