Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary was employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The director noted that the beneficiary was the sole employee of the U.S. entity and the submitted job description indicated that 60% of his time was spent on sales, which are operational duties, not managerial or executive functions.
