Decision Summary
The initial petition was denied because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily executive or managerial capacity. The appeal was dismissed because the AAO concurred with the director, finding the description of the beneficiary's duties and the organizational structure insufficient to prove the role was primarily managerial or executive rather than performing day-to-day operational tasks.
