The first is stating a fact: If you come this way, I will lead you to the office. It is fact.
The second is a little strange in spoken language, but it is giving "you" the option to come or not.
The third is probably most common spoken. It is a polite way of suggesting that "you" go in a direction to be led to the office.

They all have the same meaning. B and C are slightly more formal. C sounds like something an English butler would say.
