Athletics Canada on Friday parted ways with head coach Peter Eriksson on the heels of "its largest and most thorough organizational review."
The review included an anonymous online survey and more than 120 in-person and phone interviews with staff, provincial branch members, athletes, coaches, sponsors and other stakeholders.
"This decision was necessary to ensure sustainable international success," Athletics Canada CEO Rob Guy said in a statement. "I would like to thank Peter for his dedication and contributions that helped Canada achieve international success.
"However, through the report, it was felt that a change in leadership style was needed in the high performance area."
Canada's high performance athletes will report to Guy for the foreseeable future.
"We want to talk to the team that's in place and evaluate what type of role is needed to oversee the high performance program and to build upon our success."
