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.

Sean McLean
Conroy Ross Partners
Ken Larson was my executive coach almost ten years ago. He has an ability to engage and motivate individuals as well as remain totally supportive. He stuck with me through thick and thin while I was challenged with some serious health issues while managing a large Not-For-Profit organization with huge stresses and responsibilities. His foresight and personal experiences are the gifts he brings to any conversation. I still call on Ken whenever I need a coach and am in need of some honesty and compassion.
Alana Newton
Leadership Coach, Connect Now Business Network
Ken made significant contributions to the success of a quality initiative within the Canadian energy pipeline industry in 2014 and this success has continued into 2015 with even lofty plans well under way. Ken brings unique perspectives, the ability to draw out fantastic insights from people by asking thought provoking questions, a 'winning' attitude focused on achieving excellence and a vast tool kit that allows him to flex and adapt to any situation. It has been a pleasure to continue to work with Ken as he has the right approach when it comes to developing long lasting relationships based on honoring commitments and driving for sustainable results.
Vik Kohli
Director, Enbridge
Ken Larson's skillful method of weaving concrete solutions with meaningful anecdotes gave me the fire to apply his techniques to find new methods both personally and professionally. Ken walks his talk and he brought life, energy and determination to what potentially could have been a difficult virtual presentation to CAPL during COVID. I highly recommend Ken if you need a push, new momentum or to discover which direction to lead your team or yourself.
Jeff Rideout
Vice President, Canadian Association of Petroleum Landmen
I have been working with Ken for approximately for a year and have found him to be an excellent resource for addressing professional and personal issues and opportunities. Ken is an extremely focused individual and takes an action-oriented approach that delivers results. We have leveraged his abilities from a corporate perspective, specifically the FranklinCovey and Gazelle programs, with considerable success and intend to utilize his talents in the future to assist in the development of our business initiatives and corporate culture.
Peter Huff
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.
