Leen Zevenbergen schreef met 'En nu laat ik mijn baard staan' een absolute bestseller, die indringend opriep tot meer creativiteit en ondernemerschap. Door velen werd dat als een verademing ervaren. Hij werd een veelgevraagd spreker over inspirerend ondernemerschap. Maar zijn publiek, merkt hij, had behoefte aan meer sturing: hoe doe ik dat dan precies, ondernemender worden? Het is inderdaad moeilijk om echt aan de slag te gaan om je werk leuker, inspirerender en creatiever te maken. Daarom schreef Zevenbergen dit vervolg. 'T IS GROEN. EN GROENER WORDT HET NIET staat vol aansprekende voorbeelden van hoe je verandering tot stand kan brengen. Het zet aan tot daden. Want alle lichten staan op groen. Gaan!
