The <ManagerSelector> tag allows you to directly assign a manager to an employee on workflow forms.
The control respects the Forms - Management Assignments access authorization in the Authorizations tab of System Admin > Roles. Assign the Can Read checkbox to display the current manager and method, and the Can Create checkbox to enable the full functionality of the control.
