Hi Richard,
That is a great question. While many colleges require a Ph.D. for their professors; Community Colleges, Technical Colleges, and Junior Colleges will often hire professors with MBA's. Here's a great article that covers this topic http://www.businessmba.org/faq/can-a-person-teach-at-the-college-level-with-only-an-mba#:~:text=With%20an%20MBA%20and%20some,likely%20to%20be%20a%20requirement. When it comes to getting into the leadership training side of things here's a great past question posted with answers that you might find helpful https://acp-advisornet.org/questions/4454 I would take note of the mentors who responded to the question and reach out to them directly with additional questions they can answer for you. Hopefully, this is a good start.
Best,
Jennifer
