    There was an interesting bit in here about how the point of deception is to make your enemy do something, not think something. That is, you want the enemy to leave a point unguarded, or to move troops somewhere, or something. So the operational commander needs to tell the deception group what he wants the enemy to do, and the deception lead needs to figure out what to make the enemy think so that they'll do that.
