A new governance model
Since 2022, we have undertaken a comprehensive overhaul of our corporate governance structure to provide it with a stronger foundation. This change, which has been very well received, serves our strategic ambitions and the long-term future of our Group.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors approves all decisions relating to the Group’s major strategic economic, social, financial, technological and environmental policies, and oversees their implementation by executive management. Medium-term policies are defined by a regularly updated strategic plan which is presented by the Chief Executive Officer and then reviewed and adopted by the Board of Directors.

The Executive Committee
Since the beginning of 2023, a renewed Executive Committee has been driving the new momentum of our Lead the Future strategic plan, notably with the arrival of a new Chief Executive Officer of Orange France in April 2023. The year was also marked by the creation of an Orange Wholesale division, bringing together the French and International wholesale and operator services activities under a single umbrella.
