Many women are saying goodbye to the corporate world in favor of creating their own through entrepreneurship. This paper explores some of the reasons why women in today's workforce change from the rise on the corporate ladder path to the world of entrepreneurship. Issues such as job stress and one of its most notable offshoots - the 'glass ceiling' are presented. Ultimately, women initiated organizations define the women's movement of the 21^st century.
