El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

18. LET’S
AVOID
A
LAWSUIT
• You’re
doing
PR
for
Costco.
• The
VP
has
just
been
fired
for
embezzling
money.
• The
media
calls
you
asking
for
informaQon.
• What
can
you
tell
them?
20. WHY
WRITE
ONE?
• Allow
PR
to
reach
opinion
leaders
• Op-‐ed
authors
are
perceived
as
experts
on
the
issue
• Op-‐eds
are
exclusives
OP-‐eds
are
controlled
media.
This
is
rare
in
media
rela4ons
and
publicity
21. WHY
WRITE
ONE?
• These
can
talk
about
policy.
• These
can
promote
events
more
blatantly.
• You’re
worried
the
reporter
will
screw
the
story
up.
OP-‐eds
are
controlled
media.
This
is
rare
in
media
rela4ons
and
publicity
22. OP
ED
IDEAS
• 750
words
max
for
an
op
ed.
• You
need
to
have
one
main
idea.
• Hit
it
early,
and
don’t
veer
off
course.
• Short
powerful
sentences
• You
need
facts
to
verify
your
claims.
23. OP
ED
IDEAS
• Don’t
say,
“I
think.”
State
it.
– I
thinks
this
is
a
bad
idea.
– This
is
a
bad
idea.
• Don’t
send
out
op
eds
in
bulk.
• Do
call
an
editor
to
see
if
a
paper
takes
them.
24. LETTER
TO
THE
EDITOR
DIFFERENCES
• They
are
shorter
(200-‐500
words)
• You
react
to
news
and
should
state
what
sparked
the
le@er.
• State
the
theme
of
your
le@er
a^er
saying
why
you
are
wriQng
• A
le@er
to
the
editor
is
a
counter
punch.
An
Op
ed
can
be
an
a@acking
punch.
25. OP
ED
A
GOOD
WAY
TO
FORMAT
What
is
the
problem?
What
is
your
opinion
on
the
problem?
What
is
your
supporQng
informaQon?
What
is
the
soluQon?
Why
should
the
reader
care?
26. OD
ED
ROOM
TO
BE
BETTER
• Hit
harder.
• Short,
choppy
sentences.
– This
is
wrong.
– We
can
do
be@er.
•
A
le@er
to
the
editor
should
be
a
slap
in
the
face
and
call
to
acQon.
27. OP
ED
ROOM
TO
BE
BETTER
• In
terms
of
subject
ma@er,
think
beyond
your
organizaQon.
– We
are
worried
about
rising
energy
and
food
prices.
– Buying
local
saves
money.
– It
protects
jobs.
– Our
client
helps
in
both
areas.
• You
can’t
do
this
if
you
don’t
follow
current
events.
