Kenny was originally trained as a lawyer, but escaped. He worked for more than 15 years in leading advertising and marketing agencies in his native Scotland – and also as a renowned stand-up comedian.

Kenny has written and performed at comedy clubs throughout Britain and Ireland (and at ten consecutive Edinburgh Fringe Festivals).

He has always been fascinated with ideas and where they come from. So he studied the creative people he worked with – designers, writers, art directors, and comedians – and watched how they generated ideas.

Kenny discovered that they shared secret habits and behaviours – which form the basis of the radical approach to creative thinking Kenny calls ‘Headsurfing™’.

He delivers humour, energy and inspiration as a motivational speaker, workshop leader and creativity catalyst.

Unusually, Kenny is equally at home as a facilitator, conference speaker or after-dinner speaker – tailoring his contribution in either situation to achieve the outcomes his clients require.
