Abstract

In a global context where competition is increasing, companies are constantly looking for sustainable competitive advantages that will allow them to improve their market shares and profit margins, improving team performance is one of the key factors in this process which allows these organizations to increase their productivity, their competitiveness, and their profitability.

Evaluating this team performance is one of the major challenges of human resources management, which has experienced in recent years a profound digital transformation of data and their management, current IT tools are no longer able to use the mass of data resulting from several sources and which does not stop multiplying from one day to another, or to find correlations between them to draw new knowledge and to anticipate future events.

The purpose of our research is to establish a team classification model according to several performance factors using Machine Learning algorithms, in particular for dimensionality reduction and clustering, The result of this work represents a decision support model for companies to develop a tailor-made team about the overall strategy of the company, to set up an action plan adapted to each team cluster and to anticipate future events, namely departures.
