Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The director initially noted, and the AAO concurred, that the evidence submitted did not establish that the beneficiary would function at a senior level within the organization, as the described duties and staffing levels suggested the beneficiary would be involved in day-to-day operational tasks rather than overseeing other managerial or professional staff.
