Quite difficult to do it. And not very elegant.

I don't know what you're trying to do, but would the following work in
your case: Create a separate content type somewhere else in the site,
accessible only to the manager. Allow those content types to have links
to those folders you originally wanted to add only-manager content to?

You can then create a new page template for your folders that display
the manager-only information if the manager looks at it.
