Abstract: On the present paper management strategies are analyzed in order to evaluate the degree of entre/intrapreneurship on firms' management. This study was taken on a northern region of Portugal (Vale do Sousa) on Industrial and Construction sectors through a sample of 251 firms. Each strategy was analyzed individually showing a lack of culture of entrepreneurship on firms' management. When grouping the results it was possible to conclude that the degree of intrapreneurship is very low, and firms are surviving (even succeeding) by following conventional (old fashioned) management strategies.
