You're facing a non-tech client and complex database queries. How do you simplify the explanation for them?
When faced with the challenge of explaining database queries to a non-tech audience, it's essential to bridge the knowledge gap with simplicity. Here's how to make the complex understandable:
- Use analogies relevant to the client's industry to illustrate database concepts.
- Break down queries into basic steps, focusing on the 'what' and 'why' rather than the 'how.'
- Visual aids can be incredibly effective—consider flowcharts or diagrams to represent processes.

Analogies are best used to explain technical details to non-technical client. Break it down to physical storage structures like warehouse, pantry, library e.tc. With these analogies, you can use the concept of database objects(e.g index) to explain how items(e.g books) are retrieved in a library. Same concept can be applied to other storage facilities.

My approach to database management involves starting with the big picture, using analogies to illustrate concepts, replacing technical terms with plain language, breaking down complex processes into simpler steps, and relating technical explanations to business outcomes. Then, I use storytelling to frame explanations as narratives or problem-solving journeys, making them more engaging and easier to follow for clients. This approach helps clients understand the importance of technical details in their database management.

One thing I do when explaining technical processes to a non tech person is making sure to not use any technical jargon. Keep everything at 10000 foot level, giving a general overview without getting into a technical explanation. Use them terms they can understand.

Unfortunately, this isn't something that can be put into a simple answer without more information on what needs to be conveyed and the level of expertise of the person involved. How you describe something depends on what you read from the person at the time and adjust accordingly.
