I wouldn't use "brought" here, and I don't know anyone who would. I would say, "My manager put out his hand to shake mine." That is the most natural way to say it. Also, "My manager extended his hand to shake mine."

I wouldn't say that the verb "brought" is "wrong," but a more usual way of expressing the idea is, "My manager extended his hand to shake mine."

Brought can be used in this context. "My manager brought his hands close to me to shake hands" or "shake my hand"
