Part of the issue may also be that your model/table names are NOT following 
convention.  The model should be singular, the table name plural underscored 
lower case:

Model           Table
Leave           leaves
Employee        employees

Assume you also have these in your classes:

class Leave < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :employee
end

class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :leaves
belongs_to :manager, :class_name => "Employee"
has_many :subordinates, :class_name => "Employee", :foreign_key => "manager_id"
end

so for Employee (Manager) with id 24:

manager = Employee.find(24)
leaves = manager.subordinates.collect(&:leaves) (You can also declare a 
relationship in the Employee model to mimic this if desired in a has_many 
:through)

If you made manager a separate model/table you'd adjust the relationships as 
appropriate.
