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. The petitioner provided a vague description of the beneficiary's proposed duties and did not demonstrate that the beneficiary would manage the organization rather than performing the day-to-day operational tasks, particularly as the new office would have no other employees.
