My experience its best if the other "department" can comprehend and grasp the other department.
I still find it shocking that that developers don't use the software they are building for but "artists" (wacom users) handle it quite aggressively and have no fucking clue about the requests they are asking, "can you just do this and can it be done this after noon", without knowing the extend of requests.
Us nerds are normally pushed into some god forsaken room as an embarrassment!!So to answer your question - its best to understand your industry in its entirety, as an artist you don't have to know how to build a software suite in c++ but trying to compile a hello world via command line will have you respecting the other person a heck of a lot more and via verse.
