If instead you consider the highest quality of morality being
"Do no harm", then you're off to a better start. Because if someone is 
doing no harm, there is no obligation to interfere with them. As such
the non-interference rule is derived from one more basic.

IMHO you're dealing with the symptoms instead of curing the disease.
Sure there are leaders like Stalin & Mao, but there are also leaders
like Socrates & Gandhi. Substitute "role-model" for leader & you get
a different perspective. The problem lies not in the relationship
between leader & follower or role-model and emulator, but in the values
each of these hold.
