A boss seeks control ...

[Odessa Dawn]

A boss seeks control; a leader embraces we.

Is it grammatical?

By setting "we" in bold italics, you indicate that the reader should interpret it as a noun meaning "the idea of a group". This is not typical usage but it is possible. It would be better to use a few more words to phrase this more explicitly.

:?:

I'd just change "we" to "collaboration" or "teamwork".

When I first read it, I had no idea what it meant.

 

[Rover_KE]

Neither had I. That's why I posted ":?:".

Nice selfie, Rover. ;-)

I would aim for some sort of parallel idea in the two halves of the sentence. Maybe something like: A boss concentrates on "I"; a leader embraces "we".
