Anne ALBERT-CROMARIAS

Anne ALBERT-CROMARIAS is an HDR lecturer-researcher at IAE Clermont Auvergne - School of Management, University of Clermont Auvergne, where she serves as co-head of the Territorial Strategy and Actor Networks (STeRA) Axis and is a member of the Scientific Council of the Clermont Research Management (CleRMa) laboratory. Her academic career demonstrates deep integration within French business education and research structures, particularly focusing on strategic management applications in territorial contexts.

Her primary research interests revolve around collective territorial strategies, employment and territory dynamics, coopetition phenomena, and various forms of proximity in business relationships. Dr. ALBERT-CROMARIAS has developed significant expertise in how small and medium enterprises navigate strategic challenges within specific territorial contexts, with particular attention to healthcare systems, wine production regions, and artisanal businesses. Her work consistently bridges theoretical strategic management concepts with practical territorial development applications.

Analysis of her publication trends reveals a clear trajectory from traditional strategic management toward increasingly interdisciplinary work connecting business strategy with territorial development, sustainability challenges, and healthcare management. Her recent publications (2022-2024) show heightened focus on grand challenges like climate change and healthcare accessibility, demonstrating how strategic management principles can address complex societal issues at local and regional scales. The consistent appearance of coopetition as a theme across different sectors indicates her recognition of this concept's broad applicability beyond traditional business contexts.

Dr. ALBERT-CROMARIAS actively contributes to research teams through her leadership of the STeRA Axis within CleRMa laboratory. Her collaborative approach is evident in her extensive co-authorship patterns, particularly with researchers like Alexandre Asselineau, Catherine dos Santos, and Grégory Blanchard across multiple projects and publications. This collaborative research model has enabled her to explore strategic management applications across diverse sectors including healthcare, viticulture, and artisanal businesses while maintaining a consistent theoretical foundation.
