Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial or executive capacity. The AAO concurred with the Director's finding that the description of the beneficiary's duties was vague, restated from a prior petition, and included operational tasks such as business development and client relations, rather than qualifying high-level management or executive functions.
