Central to Alles’s work is the "Iceberg Model." She categorizes competencies into two tiers. Above the waterline are skills and knowledge—elements that are easy to identify and train. However, the bulk of the iceberg lies beneath the surface: social roles, self-image, traits, and motives. Alles argues that while technical skills get someone an interview, these "deep" competencies—like emotional intelligence or initiative—determine long-term success. Her dictionary provides the tools to measure these elusive "submerged" qualities. Precision Through Levels martha alles diccionario de competencias
In defining "Key Players" or "High Potentials," organizations use the dictionary to map the competencies required for future roles (e.g., a Manager vs. a Director). This highlights the "competency gap" an employee must bridge to be ready for promotion. El Diccionario de Competencias de Martha Alles es
