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 concluded that the beneficiary, as the sole U.S. employee, was primarily performing the day-to-day operational and sales duties of the organization, and any managerial or executive duties were only incidental to these non-qualifying tasks.
