Happy Book Birthday, The Magic Cup!



While I'm travelling in Oman, my next book releases March 29, 2016! Here's a blurb:

DIA CALHOUN and LORIE ANN GROVER announce the publication of THE MAGIC CUP with HOWARD BEHAR. The two critically acclaimed authors collaborated in the writing of the corporate fairy tale with Behar, former President of Starbucks International.

The business parable encapsulates the values Behar has held as a leader throughout his life, such as truth, courage, compassion, and responsibility. THE MAGIC CUP helps us discover that only by acting on sound moral values can we fill our lives with the personal and professional success and satisfaction we seek.

And a few reviews!
