Jargon

I have always been a strong proponent of clear communication, though I tend to use too much coded language myself. This has been pointed out to me, once again, by a trusted friend.
Earlier in the week I sent the link for this site to a handful of people looking for feedback, which prompted this reply from my friend H.R.:
- some of the stuff could still be more in business terms and less in process professional terms. E.g., would a CFO or a unit manager know what ‘information productivity’ really was? Could you state it in terms they would know?
Good advice, methinks. On one hand, I do want to introduce new concepts to readers and I don’t think that “dumbing down” content is respectful, but on the other hand, I don’t want this site to seem inaccessible to potential clients. I am leaning toward keeping the core content intact, but adding more contextual content to the site, maybe a glossary…
What do you think?
