Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The director determined that the beneficiary's described duties, such as looking for merchants and marketing gems at shows, were operational and sales-related tasks necessary to provide the company's services, rather than high-level managerial or executive functions.
