Coastal Horizons Center cut supervisor turnover from 32% to 22%

Its supervisors were promoted for their clinical work, then asked to run teams. The ones who struggled left before the gap closed.

Coaching, Performance Reviews

Coastal Horizons Center runs health and human services across coastal North Carolina. Its supervisors come almost entirely from the clinical side, promoted for the quality of their practice.

“We’ve seen SkillCycle’s coaching directly impact employees confidence…”

Ryan Estes

COO, Coastal Horizons Center

The challenge

A supervisor at Coastal Horizons arrives in the role with deep practice experience and no framework for running a team. The two jobs share a title and almost nothing else. The people they manage feel the difference first, and the ones who leave do so before the new supervisor has closed the gap.

What they did

Coaching was introduced for supervisors alongside the performance review cycle, so development and evaluation stopped being separate conversations.
