This systematic literature review aimed to analyze and synthesize studies that indicated the importance of behavioral observation in the organizational context. Based on Social Learning Theory and by considering relevant recent findings and theories, the impact of managers as role models for employees is researched and analyzed. The importance of this topic is to determine ways that learning and enhancing performance in the workplace can be applied for people management development. The literature for theory was numerous, however studies on the particular topic were limited and not expanded in the organizational context. The key message of this review is that the impact of managers and leaders can be positive and progressive both for the employees and for the organization.
