This paper serves as a wake-up call for business leaders in China’s newly established Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to review their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) for them to survive and succeed in a volatile environment. The survey used in the study was intended to examine the impact of such factors as leadership traits and personal dispositions including the cultural heritage of Confucianism in business settings. In addition, it was devised to find out whether foreign language skills matter in this regard. Subsequently, companies and institutions are called upon to establish a mechanism to cultivate a talent pool and identify potential leaders in this area.
