I get the sense that colleges use “leadership” as a catch-all. It can mean you were elected to a fancy title by of a group of your peers, but it can also mean you were placed in charge of something - whether that was a project or a couple of younger kiddies. It can also mean taking initiative or being a self-starter as OP suggested. Speaking out with creative suggestions or ideas that later get implemented can probably count too. Could just mean you “led the pack” as in always being the first to volunteer, or being the first to speak up in a class after a teacher opened up a topic for discussion.
