With school projects, I always just did them if no one else wanted to. I think taking a task that isn't getting done on yourself is a fine thing to do. I never saw it happen when I was in school, but if hypothetically someone took it upon themselves to make other people do the work rather than doing it themselves, then yes, I would have thought less of them.

    Oftentimes if someone makes a decision, people automatically start taking that person's lead and asking them how they want things to go

This has never been my experience. I take offense when people start making decisions for me.
