Was Inspire (part of Battle Commander sub-skill) intended to affect both the character with Leader and his allies? or just his allies? I could see it working both ways. On one hand, it doesn't make sense to only affect his friends and not the guy doing it, kind of like, if he really believed it then it would affect him too. On the other hand, that's pretty nasty to couple together with warrior or cleric skills.
A leader inspires allies that are adjacent to him. He's helping direct the attack.
