Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the petitioner successfully demonstrated that the beneficiary was employed in a qualifying managerial capacity abroad and would be employed in a similar capacity in the United States. The evidence, including detailed duty descriptions and supporting documentation, established that the beneficiary primarily performed managerial tasks, supervised professional subordinates, had personnel authority, and was relieved from performing non-qualifying operational duties.
