Tim Draper describes structuring a management buyout of Stacks from Deutsche Telekom over two years, using a "win-win-win" approach to align the interests of the company, Deutsche Telekom, and investors during tough negotiations.

The biggest obstacle for Stacks was to structure the management buyout from Deutsche Telekom. It's been a 2-year process. We've been successful through the win-win-win strategy, where we've been aligning the interests of, first and foremost, our company, Deutsche Telekom, and the investors. We were always able to find a middle ground between 3 parties, even though at times it was really tough.
