No, it would not and never did. Athens and its many Greek neighbors spent most of the time quarreling, infighting or waging war on each other. Athens did on occasion enter into coalitions with fellow Greek nations but mostly in order to better be able to beat the cr*p out of other Greek nations. Athens was all about maintaining their own independence and superiority and about establishing themselves as a trade empire, and focused mostly on setting up colonies in the lands it traded with, like southern Italy and Sicily and all along the coast of present-day Turkey.

Which leader did democracy in Athens work best?

Pericles, after getting his conservative opponent Thucydides son of Melesias expelled in 444 BCE, manipulated affairs as 'First Citizen' to bring prosperity and power to Athens. Unfortunately his ego led him to lead Athens into a destructive war with the Peloponnesian League 13 years later, which Athens lost. During the war, the democracy was led by populists after Pericles' early death, and the democracy was replaced to bring government of the city under control.
