The CEO Cancer Gold Standard™, described in At-A-Glance: The Five Pillars of the CEO Cancer Gold Standard is a workplace based initiative of the CEO Roundtable on Cancer, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to fighting cancer in workplaces across the United States. The Gold Standard, which is a standard of excellence created by Roundtable Member CEOs, focuses on three goals:
