The petitioner's description of the beneficiary's job duties was found to be vague, lacking specific tasks, and improperly relied on repeating the statutory definition of an executive. The provided information was insufficient to determine the beneficiary's actual role and distinguish high-level responsibilities from ordinary operational activities.
