Not for me. A master is to me much more controlling than a leader. A follower is to me much more independent than a slave.
Again, take say i2c where the master is the only one who can initiate a transaction. Being an "i2c follower" doesn't convey to me that the follower is prohibited from initiating a transaction.
The controller/worker suggest by others is much better than leader/follower, but "worker" doesn't work very well in all cases IMO.
