Never assume that other party has the knowledge :) regardless where you are, you will meet people who don't have your background, and even more often you will have to work with people of different background. Imagine that in corporate life you will be working under and reporting to a salesperson. If you can explain what you want to do in simple words, you win :)
I have the (un)luck of being a CS drop out, with degree in marketing, so I get what you are writing about, but often you will meet people who have no idea about the p value. In fact I saw a supposed-to-be-cool presentation destroyed by a lecture on p value. Ideas from the marketing team were cool and indeed they were a success but they couldn't measure it properly.
