For me, the most obvious choice would be Commander Shepard, mostly because of her ability to take every disparate alien species in the galaxy, and bring them together to fight off the Reapers and thus save the galaxy. However, I'd rather go out of my way and mention Urdnot Wrex and Tali'Zorah vas Normandy as my other favorite leaders.
Now, granted, the way they became leaders of the krogan and quarians, respectively, was mostly the result of Commander Shepard's actions and choices. For example, Shepard spares Wrex on Virmire, and Wrex unites every krogan clan under his own as their leader in the next two Mass Effects. As for Tali'Zorah, the only way she could become admiral of the quarian flotilla was for her to be exonerated at her trial in Mass Effect 2.
However, that still did not excuse the fact that Wrex and Tali had all the makings of leaders, like Shepard. Wrex, being a krogan, possessed courage and tenacity, while Tali, being a quarian, had intelligence and ingenuity.
