Which one is better for work leadership:
1) Heading market entry initiative into competitive and exclusive region, overcoming certain cultural and business obstacles in the process, emphasizing interpersonal skills and decision making skills (but not directly supervising anyone)
OR
2) training junior employees with a variety of techniques to better themselves?
Personally I prefer the first because its a more powerful accomplishment, but it doesn't show me supervising or "leading" anyone? What do you all think?
thanks.

id go with the first one too. leadership isnt just about managing people. it can entail when you:
identified/defined a problem
articulated vision
resisted conventional approaches; challenging status quo
convinced others of importance of problem
marshaled resources to address problem
motivated others
made good use of others' talents
was open to new information, input, etc.
built consensus with appropriate stakeholders
guided strong mid-course corrections; overcame mistakes
built on success
permanently upgraded organization’s capabilities; institutionalizing solution
illustrated methods for other individuals, organizations, etc.
(i got this from some adconsult site)
also, it is hard to substantiate the second one, whereas you have more solid facts to go on in the market entry example. i think it is definitely the more eye-catching and interesting one to use.
