You can use below methods in your code to check if current logged in user is manager.



Getting a User Object - ServiceNow Wiki



myUserObject.getManagerName() -- returns the user_name of the current user's manager


myUserObject.getManagerID() -- returns the sys_id of the current user's manager

If you want to highlight a user who is a manager, you can use the display settings.

Look for (3 Display Settings)

I don't think OOB there is any method to know if the user is a Manager,   you might write a script include using below code.



var user = gs.getUserID() //current user sys_id


var target = new GlideRecord('sys_user');


target.addNotNullQuery('manager');


target.addQuery('manager',user);


target.query();     // Issue the query to the database to get all records


  if(target.next()) {  


        retrun true;


  }


else


{


return false;


}
