2-Plus, she's shown combat skills, not leaderrship skills...which is important for a leader. The problem is you're thinking of a real leader.

It's extremely likely that she has no real team, especially since her very existence is a top-secret. Ciel herself didn't feel like a teammate, but rather like someone told to measure her performance.

Since the team was not a real team, but instead one "improvised" so Penny could enter the tournament to begin with, whether she has leader skills or not is irrelevant, and needless for her to be the Leader of that unofficial team.
