Abstract: The objective of this article is to conceptually develop the dimensions which characterise the entrepreneurial dynamic of a French large company by using the entrepreneurial orientation theoretical framework. We apply this framework to EDF which is an interesting case of a big firm facing a complex and changing environment. In the first part of the article, we introduce the concept of entrepreneurial orientation. The second part is focusing on the enterprise itself and on the particular context which leads it to think about and adopt strategic, organisational and structural changes. Finally, in the third part, we show that the entrepreneurial orientation theoretical framework is a relevant and powerful grid to understand the strategic decisions and processes.
