Masterwork Advisor · Chief Legacy Officer · Author
Sherrie Rose helps High-Achievers and Legacy-Minded leaders develop their Masterwork: the contribution only your particular talents and vision can produce.
"Between Livelihood & Legacy —That's Masterwork,
Where your Wisdom leaves its mark.™"
Sherrie Rose is a Masterwork Advisor, the originator of the Chief Legacy Officer role, and the author of six books, with two more in development. Her work centers on a single conviction: the most significant contributions of a person's life do not happen by accident. They are developed with intention during the Masterwork Years.
She works one-on-one with legacy-focused leaders as The Masterwork Advisor, and leads the Masterwork360 Mastermind, a group for High-Achievers ready to develop their defining contribution alongside others doing the same work.
Her global clients are across six continents: Australia, Asia, Europe, Canada, the United States, New Zealand, South Africa, and Latin America.
Sherrie Rose has given Masterwork a modern definition:
Remarkable accomplishments spanning your lifetime, or the duration of your business. Your signature contribution. The one only your particular talents and vision could produce. Your life's work and your enterprise's work.
It is the intentional development of professional and personal accomplishments that hold substance. It benefits others. It likely outlasts you.
It is legacy worthy to develop Masterwork.
The Real Currency is Relationship Riches.
This has been Sherrie Rose's foundational understanding long before it became a conversation about AI or the future of work. Human connection and trust are primary assets, for both life and business. She has held RelationshipRiches.com for sixteen years. She remembers people's birthdays without a calendar app and reaches out because she thought of them. Relationship Riches is not a program. It is how she lives.
Sherrie Rose coined the Masterwork Years as a new life stage. It is the stage when accumulated wisdom, discernment, and well-earned experience become the raw material for contributions of lasting significance. This stage typically begins in the fifth decade and advances.
As artificial intelligence handles more routine work, the non-routine capabilities developed over decades become more valuable, not less: reading between the lines, connecting patterns across contexts, making decisions without a clear right answer.
The Masterwork Years are not about slowing down. They are the years when your particular kind of intelligence is most needed.
The traditional view of life skips over what may be its most productive and meaningful period. Sherrie Rose identified a stage that conventional thinking has consistently underestimated. These are the years when accumulated skills, discernment, and wisdom are no longer being built, but deployed.
The Masterwork Years are not an extension of the working years. They are qualitatively different: a period defined by significant contribution, refinement, and the kind of insight that only comes from decades of real experience. Recognizing this stage, and preparing for it, changes the approach to how High-Achievers experience the years ahead.
The Masterwork Years: Why Masterwork Matters as AI Advances
The book that names the life stage and maps the path. The first book to identify and define the Masterwork Years. Written for achievers who are done with next steps and ready for their defining contribution.
Her book, The Masterwork Years: Why Masterwork Matters as AI Advances, is the first to name and map this life stage.
Sherrie Rose coined the term enhavim, a meaningful endeavor defined as "Purpose and Mission led by Vision." Enhavim is the operating principle that converts scattered achievements into coherent, legacy worthy contributions. It is the foundation of how she works with every person she advises.
Sherrie Rose created the Chief Legacy Officer (CLO) role: a visionary position that functions as both archivist and futurist, charged with championing what has been built, creating what is needed now, and transforming what comes next.
The CLO role reflects her conviction that legacy is not an afterthought. It is a leadership discipline.
Sherrie Rose is the founder of Masterwork360, a platform and community for High-Achievers and Legacy-Minded leaders. The Masterwork360 Mastermind is the immersive development experience for those ready to turn decades of wisdom into their defining contribution.
The three Wisdoms (Live Smart, Give Smart, Leave Your Mark) are the foundation of The Wisdom Model, a body of work developed within the Masterwork360 experience.
