TODAY'S BUSINESS IDIOM: GIVE (SOMEONE) THE GREEN LIGHT



Give (someone) the green light


To give someone permission to go ahead with a project

Our boss gave us the green light  to begin work on the new sales campaign

Give (someone) the green light : Darle permiso a alguien para realizar un proyecto (dar luz verde)

Ejemplos:


La junta me dio luz verde. Necesitare toda la ayuda posible para empezar inmediatamente. (" The board gave me the green light. I will need all the help possible to start immediately")

El doctor me dio luz verde para empezar a entrenar de nuevo (" The doctor gave me the green light to start training again")

Ejemplos adicionales:

We have everything ready... but we're still waiting for them to give us the green light

Headquarters didn't give the green light until november. That cost us a lot of money
