Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a managerial capacity. The AAO found that the petitioner's staffing levels at the time of filing were insufficient to relieve the beneficiary from performing daily operational tasks, as key subordinate managers had not yet been hired.
