Who We Are

About Champion PSI

The Story

There is something to learn from every person you meet, and sometimes, you meet someone who has a monumental effect on your life. For Ken Larson, founder of Champion Performance Systems, it was his National Team basketball coach.

When we find someone we look up to, we are challenged, encouraged, and inspired. In admiring how someone could impact him so much, Ken realized his growing passion to ride shotgun with amazing high performers as they break through to new levels of achievement, just as his coach did for him.

The rest is history — Champion PSI is in its 26th year in business, though the concept was inspired long before in those unforgettable, defining moments on the court.

Today, Champion PSI has grown from one to a collection of like-minded professionals with varied expertise and a wide range of personal and professional fields, all driven by one prevailing goal: to scale your business through executive coaching and strategic planning.

What People Are Saying

Life has been so full that I have felt a desperate need to take time away and perhaps think some significant “whys and where to’s” in my life. Seeking some quiet space to determine if I am experiencing burnout, if I am on the path in life that fills my heart, and what I may be able to do to begin to take care of myself. Ronna and this beautiful place helped me find peace, space and time-away from the vortex of life. This guided experience took me to my core to find my answers and I know that I am not alone.
JW
CEO
Ken understands the business world. He learns the business from the bottom up and at the same time works with the CEO from the top down. He helps get employees and management on the same page, share the same values, mission and action plan to move the organization from Good to Great. With his help we were able to weather the 2009 financial storm without losing any employees or business. On the contrary we were able to grow and hire during the downturn in economy. He is my career and business coach.
David Wallach
President/Founder, Triumph Real Estate Investment Fund
Ken was instrumental in assisting our organization define a strong culture which is deeply rooted in everything we do today. Ken also facilitates a "Life Coaching for Fitness Professionals" program that is one of the best received courses on our schedule. We have had many employees take the course more than once. I would recommend Ken to assist with a company looking to build a strong people related culture.
Scott Wildeman
Sr. VP Operations, International Fitness Holdings Inc
I lead a COO group in Calgary and we welcome a new speaker each month to share some relevant topics with us in a limited time. Ken was a stand out from the last few years for sure! He is one of the few who scored highly from all members on his passion for his material, the level of the content and his skill and expertise to deliver the content in a meaningful way. We loved what he shared so much we bought the book and are using it as a discussion point at our annual retreat. I would highly recommend bringing Ken into your group of leaders to shift their thinking and truly understand the simple and powerful steps for execution.
Aly Pain
Professional Speaker, The Conflict Coach
After hearing Ken Larson speak about coaching and seeing the passion, drive and focus with which he operates, I decided that when I needed a coach, it would be Ken. I have been working with Ken as a coach for close to a year. He has guided me through a major personal and career transition in a way that was both challenging and re-energizing. I truly value his ability to ask the tough questions and make sure they are thoroughly and thoughtfully answered. I highly recommend Ken as a coach.
Margaret Miyagishima
