There are a lot of "leaders" on those lists, not all of them actual leaders yet. There things like consultants and artists in there. It also looks to be based on quotas since I see a trend of lower standards for women to be on the list.
They're leaders in the same way my friend and I were "young leaders" at a high school conference, we knew the right people for recommendations and payed the entry fee.
