Dick is kind of a quiet leader
I think AR was more subtle than that. Dick does do things very effectively but he isn't a leader at all. He may get others to help, but he doesn't whip the party ahead, or provide them with an imaginative motivation. He's an archetypal geek. Leadership is assigned to Nancy, or even Dot who in practical terms does less than Dick but sets the agenda and provides inspiration.
