At Azalea at Cinnaminson, a Leisure Care community focused on improving the lives of senior citizens, leadership transcends mere titles—it embodies a pledge to service, creativity, and community spirit. This is why Ed Corsi’s recent elevation to Leisure Care’s next CEO General Manager is a moment of joy, not only for our staff but for every resident and family member who considers Azalea their home.
From Curtain Calls to Care Calls: Ed’s Vibrant Career Journey
Ed Corsi’s ascent to senior living leadership is anything but typical—and that’s what makes it so motivating. Before becoming part of the Leisure Care family more than five years ago, Ed dedicated years to the entertainment realm. An esteemed performer, director, and producer, he lit up stages across the nation, cast major theatrical shows and films, and held the position of Executive Director at a professional theatre company for 11 years.
His enthusiasm for storytelling, building connections, and engaging the community created a seamless transition to senior living. After making the switch to the industry as a Sales Manager, it rapidly became clear that Ed was born for leadership. His talent for cultivating relationships and inspiring others facilitated his completion of Leisure Care’s demanding Management Associate Program. He was subsequently promoted to General Manager at his initial community and received the distinguished 2022 Rookie of the Year accolade.
Launching Azalea at Cinnaminson
When the chance arose to inaugurate a new senior living community in Cinnaminson, New Jersey, Ed was eager to spearhead this ambitious project. In August 2023, Azalea at Cinnaminson opened its doors with Ed steering the ship, establishing a high benchmark for quality, warmth, and innovation from the very start.
His leadership approach—melding charm with strategy—infused Azalea with renewed vitality. By early 2024, his achievements and commitment earned him a promotion to Senior General Manager. Today, we honor the fruition of that journey as Ed embraces his new title of CEO General Manager—a designation reserved for our most distinguished and forward-thinking leaders.
A Spark That Never Fades
What distinguishes Ed goes beyond mere achievements—it’s the personal flair he contributes to every facet of community life. Whether emceeing karaoke nights, playing music at community gatherings, or simply engaging with residents, his theatrical history and sincere compassion are evident.
His creativity energizes Azalea, ensuring every resident feels acknowledged, understood, and appreciated. The community thrives not only from his business expertise but also from his genuine nature—a rare trait that resonates with staff, families, and residents alike.
Beyond the Workplace: A Dedication to Family & Community
Away from his professional life, Ed remains deeply invested in his family and the local community in South Jersey. He and his wife of 20 years, Jeannine, are proud parents to three sons—Jake, Caden, and Nate—and a cherished Cavapoo, Francesca. Ed’s leadership extends beyond Azalea; he has been coaching flag football and baseball teams and has served as league vice president since 2013.
In addition to his family commitments, Ed’s entrepreneurial journey includes founding his own production company and providing marketing expertise as a consultant for a tech startup. Notably, from 2017 to 2019, he was a member of Facebook’s inaugural Small & Medium Business Council, contributing to the evolution of digital marketing for entrepreneurs globally.
A Leader for Today—and Tomorrow
At Azalea at Cinnaminson, we recognize that a thriving community is rooted in strong leadership. With Ed Corsi steering us onward, we are assured that we are in fervent, innovative, and visionary hands.
Join us in congratulating Ed on his well-deserved promotion and significant contributions. Under his leadership, the future of Azalea at Cinnaminson—and the larger Leisure Care family—shines brighter than ever.
