The purpose of having a plan is to keep your focus. A good development plan is based on the vision and supports the organization's mission.
An applicable vision is a description where you want to lead your organization in a certain time frame. It will enable your organization to focus on the right action while staying on the path you envisioned. The vision is especially important when circumstances are confusing. Without agreed vision, it is very easy to forget where you wanted to go and start doing things that are forced upon you by society, media, competition, etc.
The why behind your action (or what you and your organization consider important while following your vision) is your mission. Having a mission means seeing other gains besides profit and monetary aims. In today's world most successful enterprises have a mission that brings added value to society and their team members. For example, Virgin Unite's: "We unite great people and entrepreneurial ideas to reinvent how we live and work in the world to help make people’s lives better. We believe business can and must be a force for good in the world – and that this is also good for business!"
It is important to combine vision and mission and use them as leadership tools for your successful business. If your business acts with respect to society and nature around us, then the overall quality of life can be improved.

You might have a vision and mission in your head, but you are not able to lead others if you do not share it with them. To do that you need to articulate your vision and mission clearly, explain them and take action to bring them alive. By doing this while also considering others in your organization you will be a true leader.
