Mark Schulman & Heather Crider Biography
Mark Schulman, CSP is the first-call drummer for the world's greatest rock and pop artists including P!NK, Cher, Billy Idol, Foreigner, Sheryl Crow, Stevie Nicks, and Beyoncé — and one of the most sought-after keynote speakers on the planet. Over three decades and four record-breaking world tours with P!NK, Schulman has performed for more than a billion people. On stages where one mistake isn't an "oops" — it's a global broadcast — he didn't just perform. He decoded what makes elite performance possible. The answer isn't talent. It is attitude. And attitude, he discovered, is a system you can build. Schulman's two books, "Conquering Life's Stage Fright" and "The Attitude Equation," translate those discoveries into a blueprint for leaders and organizations: Attitude × Behavior = Consequence. A cancer conqueror, classically trained cellist, and passionate educator, Schulman has delivered 1,500+ keynotes for organizations including American Express, Microsoft, IBM, Cisco, and Blue Cross/Blue Shield. He is the co-creator of the Everyday Rockstar® Performance System.
Heather J. Crider is a NeuroPerformance Architect, bestselling author, and Broadway co-producer who works at a rare intersection: helping people regain access to their best thinking under pressure. Through applied neuroscience, Crider equips individuals and organizations with practical, mechanical tools to build clarity and resilience — not by motivating harder, but by rewiring how the nervous system responds when pressure is highest. One of the nation's few certified coaches in neuroscience and neuroperformance, Crider has completed over a decade of advanced training through institutions including Wharton and the University of Pennsylvania. Her methodologies are validated by data from over 5 million assessments in 132 countries. She is the Creator of the ACCESS Framework and Lead Architect of the Everyday Rockstar® Performance System.

Mark Schulman & Heather Crider Speaking Topics

Everyday Rockstar®
A rock show disguised as a keynote. There are musician speakers. There are neuroscience speakers. There is no one else anywhere doing what Mark Schulman and Heather Crider do together, on the same stage, as one experience. 60–90 minutes · live drums · concert energy · full audience participation.
Mark has performed for more than a billion people on the world's biggest stages: drummer for P!NK, Cher, Billy Idol, Stevie Nicks, and Foreigner. Heather is the NeuroPerformance Architect behind CRED, built on 3,500+ independent studies. Together they don't talk about performing under pressure. They put the whole room inside it.
This isn't a keynote your audience watches. It's one they're inside of. Live drumming that makes the audience feel the difference between survival mode and real impact, in their own bodies. Partner exercises. Neuroscience moments they can feel, not just understand. They don't discover CRED® from a slide deck. They discover it from inside their own experience — and they leave the room having already become what they came to hear about: Everyday Rockstars.
- The only keynote anywhere that fuses stadium-level live performance with a validated neuroscience framework
- Fully interactive: live drumming, partner exercises, and real-time neuroscience moments the audience experiences firsthand
- Delivers CRED® — Clarity, Resilience, Empathy, Delivery — the same four dimensions measured by the Impact Index®
- Every story is a live demonstration under real pressure: Cher's harness failure 25 feet above the stage, a name forgotten in front of 50,000 people
- We don't just inspire people. We change how they perform. Measurably. Every time.

Rockstar Rewrite™: The Interactive Performance Experience (Workshop)
Rhythm. Creativity. Collaboration. Performance. The ultimate team-building experience.
Teams are split into bands and handed a Rockstar Rewrite Kit: the verse and chorus of a legendary, instantly recognizable song. Each group rewrites the lyrics around their real work — shared challenges, wins, the human side of leadership. Then they take the stage and perform it, lyrics projected on the big screen, in front of the whole room.
This high-energy, hands-on workshop turns attendees from audience into active participants. Mark Schulman and Heather Crider guide the room from listening to doing — and the room does the rest.
Best for: leadership meetings, sales conferences, team retreats, culture events.
