Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The AAO dismissed the appeal, affirming the director's decision that the evidence did not sufficiently demonstrate that the beneficiary's role as operations manager for a new office would be primarily managerial rather than performing the day-to-day tasks necessary to run the business.
