Dame Wendy Pye is one of the most successful businesspeople in New Zealand.

She’s a rich-lister, her publishing company Sunshine Books has sold over 300 million books worldwide, she's met countless more world leaders, and she was the first living woman to be inducted into the New Zealand Business Hall of Fame.  

But it hasn’t all been easy. Dame Wendy has gone through a life changing redundancy, legal battles, and had many deals that couldn't be closed.  

She joined Newstalk ZB's Kerre Woodham in studio for the first episode of Bosses Unfiltered.
