No apostle came out and stated he was the leader. In Acts chapters 2-4 we see that Peter often took the lead when talking to government officials or Jewish religious leaders of the time. Peter also led the way for preaching to Gentiles (non-Jews) with his conversion of Cornelius in Acts chapter 10. Later on, Paul, who wasn't one of the twelve, also took on an overseer type role for the Christian congregation.
