I've seen great engineers sometime struggle with concise communications. You juggle a LOT of details in your mind. The person you're communicating with does not want 99% of the details. He/she wants the 30,000 foot view. Keep that in mind when talking to others, or writing emails and other written communications. If asked a yes/no question, it is better to answer "yes" or "no". If the person asks for more details, always start with the highest level you can provide which makes sense. Only dive into more details when asked. Even then, try to stay high level and only descend to a "lower altitude" when asked. But don't try to convey everything in your mind because people will not want to communicate with you. I hope this helps.
