Leadership isn’t a rank or a title—it’s how you show up for your people every day.
In You Are Just Beginning: A Journey Into Leadership, retired U.S. Navy Commnder James R. Ridgway III shares three decades of hard-earned lessons from the cockpit of a Navy patrol aircraft to high-stakes corporate operations.
Part memoir, part field guide, this book distills his philosophy into practical, tested tenets—taking care of your people, building trust, walking the talk, and leading with humility. Through candid sea stories, corporate case studies, and moments of both success and failure, Ridgway shows that great leadership is learned, not given.
Whether you’re starting out or seasoned in your career, this book reminds you that the best leaders are always learning… and always just beginning.

Jim Ridgway grew up in the rolling hills and jughandle roads of Bernardsville, New Jersey before heading to Albright College for a degree in Business. Somewhere along the way, the call of the open skies - and a good challenge - lured him to Aviation Officer's Candidate School, launching a 23-year career as a U.S. Naval aviator and leader.Navy adventures took him around the world and then some. Deployment to the Middle East, Southeast Asia and the Eastern Pacific. He also served as Commanding Officer of not one, but two Navy Operational Support Centers, and as the Chief of Staff for Destroyer Squadron One. He also earned a master's from the Naval War College in National Security and Strategic Studies.After retiring from the Navy in 2014, Jim traded his flight suit for leadership roles in change management, aviation management, and emergency management at the same major California utility company he still works for today.These days, he and his amazing wife, Sarah, split their home time between the Bay area and Kona, Hawaii. When they're not working, you'll find them traveling the globe, SCUBA diving, and collecting life experiences the way some people collect fridge magnets.
