Why Bother With Naming Conventions?

May 13, 2026

If you're on a small data team, then you already know what it's like to feel maxed out.

You're constantly trying to find ways to be efficient with both your time AND money. 

 

So in this video, I want to talk about one way you can accomplish this in a way you might not initially consider...

It has to do with naming conventions.

And the alignment you have across your data stack, data projects and more.

 

In my experience, this is something that can have a very real impact a team's daily performance.

And can also cause a slow, but significant amount of costs in the form of wasted time.

 

We'll cover things like:

  • What conventions normally look like on teams
  • Common excuses it doesn't get addressed
  • 3 reasons it's worth spending time on (ex. using AI)

 

Enjoy!
