Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity, which is a core requirement for the L-1A visa classification. The director found, and the AAO concurred, that the beneficiary's described duties included significant non-qualifying, operational tasks, indicating the position was not primarily managerial or executive in nature.
