This became a much more engaged conversation than I expected! I interpreted the writer as saying that

1. Communicating your value to other departments is a skill that you can learn

2. Learning how to do this lets you own the narrative within an organization

3. Owning your department's narrative is how "normal" work relationships work

4. That engineering hasn't needed to do this before is an anomaly

5. Now's a good time to learn
