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 director determined that based on the U.S. entity's small organizational structure, with only one subordinate employee, the beneficiary would likely be performing non-qualifying operational duties rather than primarily managerial ones.
