Controlling BYOD access to corp network

Context: company merged last year with a company which allows any device to connect to corp WiFi, our WiFi only allows corp assets to connect to corp WiFi , all other devices are classed as guest.

Our side of the business has used 802.1x to identify corp assets and allow access to corp WiFi, all other devices have guest internet access only.

We have to implement a company wide WLAN, and I'm looking for ideas on how best to control access to corp resources on non-corp devices.

If I had my way I would lock it down company-wide exactly as it is in our part of the business right now, but I'm aware that management folk are used to using their own devices - mobile and laptop - and would kick up a fuss if we didn't provide them continued access the way they are doing it now.

Any suggestions on how to improve security by blocking non-corp devices on corp WiFi, but also allowing some kind of authorized BYOD policy?
