You can think about this purely within a tech space as well.

If you are a UI designer, a little bit of knowledge about web developer can help you make UI choices which work for both the customer and for the developer.

If you as a developer know a bit about Ops, you can tweak your website design to hopefully make OPS better. Or atleast start broaching the question with your Ops girl

It happens anythime there is collaboration: knowing a little about the capabilities and constraints of the people upstream and downstream of you (suppliers and customers (perhaps internal)) helps you make better decisions or at least have better conversations etc.
