"Nicole Grace is one extraordinary woman: a former Wall Street executive and an ordained
Buddhist monk and a black belt in karate and a former symphony orchestra violinist! More
important, however, is the fact that her accomplishments are demonstrations of the program
she proffers in her first book, Mastery At Work. Drawn from her experience in multiple
spiritual disciplines, including martial arts, Grace distills her impressive 18 Keys into a
Three-Fold Path (Soft Skills, Professional Skills and Continuous Improvement). Taken together,
they comprise a powerful life-way, as appropriate for the longtime seeker as it is for the
spiritual novice.
"Almost all of us work, and work (especially nowadays) can be fraught with difficulties: lack of
meaning, lack of security and frustrating relationships, to name a few. Grace, through this prism
of work, is providing the public at large a process into deeper experience and understanding. This
is a book you can give to anyone as an ultimate, self-guided, personal-growth method, whether or not
they've ever uttered the word spirituality. To the degree that they embody and express the 18 Keys,
they will open inner doors, and what they learn and experience will find its outer reflection.
Mastery At Work is a book about mastery of life. It belongs on every bookshelf."

"Though belonging to the genre of self-help books like those of Dale
Carnegie and Napoleon Hill, [Mastery At Work] still manages to remain
fresh and different. [Grace] draws on the wisdom of Japanese Samurais
and Buddhism, and combines them with pleasing anecdotes from movies and
literature to give an altogether unique look to her book."

"It's a perfect time in my life to introduce a new philosophy and
impetus for change. I think I am most drawn to the honesty of your
writing. Personally, I am frequently turned off by "self-help" books
that don't emphasize a necessity for integrity and responsibility in
life. I also listened to your CD during travel time and I enjoyed it
very much. Something about listening to your spoken words allowed for a
different level of thought for me on the concepts. Your voice came
across as both soothing and powerful--nice work!"
Senior Art Director, Portland, OR
"Numerous authors have attempted to shed the light of concepts derived
from bushido, the Way of the Warrior, onto the pursuit of success in the
business world. In Mastery At Work, Nicole Grace distinguishes herself by
combining wisdom from bushido, Buddhism and other Eastern philosophies
with astute insights into the contemporary American workplace, and presenting
a practical, startlingly clear roadmap to not only success, but fulfillment,
in both work and life. Mastery at Work takes a holistic view of the person
and addresses the universal quest for a genuinely rewarding existence."
