I find this to be quite logical, but it should be tempered with consideration for tircha d'tzibura. So I suggest that while the Shatz should be at the Bima for the beginning of Kaddish, he should leave the Bima before Kaddish ends, so that he will reach the Amud in time to say Borchu right after Kaddish.

If the Shatz is saying Kaddish himself, I don't know which consideration should take precedence.
