WASHINGTON, May 10, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ Washington-based communications and public affairs firm Clyde Group announced a new round of hires, clients and awards today, fueled by an innovative staffing and hiring culture highlighted in past weeks by NBC News and The Associated Press.

Clyde Group founder and managing director, Alex Slater, has been selected to the "PR Executive of the Year" shortlist by FAXIES, which recognizes excellence in public relations based on innovation and effectiveness. This follows Slater's recognition as one of PR Week's "40 Under 40."

"Clyde Group strives to be the best agency to work with, and the best agency to work for," said Slater. "We're proud of the recognition we're receiving, but more importantly, we are focused on constantly producing the best results for our clients. When it comes to securing positive media coverage, we're the best in the business."

Clyde Group is also expanding its staff, announcing the hires of Chris Lundquist, formerly of Ward Circle Strategies, as manager, and Richard "Boot" Bullwinkle and Crosby Armstrong as associates.
