So what is the term for leadership makes moves that benefits the company but not gain interest on their own or even hurt their own reputation / interest ?

The term is 'heroic' for acts of leadership that sacrifice one self for the greater good.

In my experience, if the move "benefits the company" and the overall company governance is not dysfunctional, then the leader responsible does not get hurt by it. At least not in the long term.

It's called "fired from the mid-level manager position" because such people, generally, don't get promoted too far up in the ranks, for an obvious reason.
