Deetz explains the difference between managerial control and co-determination. There are two models that help us decifier which model is being used. These models are the information model and the communication model. I will decribe each one for you. Strategy is the overt managerial move to extend control.
Employers try to put their employees in a set routine without the employees realizing it.
This routine restricts the employees and doesn't allow them to express their feelings or thoughts. Consent is the convert control without objection. This is where the employees know about the routine and realize they are working in an environment that restricts them but does it willingly or at least for understandable reasons. One reason may be that they have bills that have to be paid and this is the highest paying job that they have found. Involvement is the free expression of ideas.
