In project management (a subfield of Social Science, specifically Construction Project Management), a lead is a modification to a logical relationship that allows the successor activity to start earlier, which is acceleration. Delay would mean starting later, overlap is about activities happening simultaneously, and elimination is removing the activity, none of which fit the definition of a lead.
