In the hit US TV series Succession, the fiercely ambitious children of multi-billionaire Logan Roy are constantly vying for control of their father's vast media dynasty.
The power plays of his hapless offspring rarely go to plan – but for the heirs of real tycoons, the path to their inheritance could be smoothed by a new Cambridge course.
The university – which is ranked third highest globally – is offering the Multi-Generational Leadership Programme designed to 'equip the world's most influential families to shape the 21st Century'.
