A table join to itself is known as self join.
select e1.empid,e1.empname,e1.empmgrname where empmgrid =
empid;
here in a single table e1 having three fields(employee id,
employee name,manager id)one employee's manager id is
another one employee's employee id so compare that 2 ids and
we can get the particular employee's manager name...

Answer / mike
You lost one Anju as Employee , because Anju does not have a
manager.
You should use left outer join in this case.
select e1.emp_name 'manager',e2.emp_name 'employee'
from employees e1 left outer join employees e2
on e1.emp_id=e2.emp_manager_id
