LIMITATION(S) Time is a big constraint: Long-term strategies may span to over 10-15 years.
During this time, the business environment may not turn out to be different from what was predicted. This will create hazards for the company.
Successful strategies are imitated by other companies. Hence, no business will survive on just one business and need to strive towards better strategies.
Dynamic business environment may call for urgent managerial decisions. Adopted strategy may constrain the management to take conflicting decisions.
High degree of government regulation can render long term strategies useless. (like insurance, financial, telecom, and aviation sectors)
Operational Effectiveness itself can be a strategy where the technology is slow moving.
