<!-- beginning of the intro - leave it as is -->

Every day from Monday to Thursday, right before our [GitLab Team call](/handbook/#team-call), a different Functional Group gives an [update](/handbook/people-operations/group-conversations/) to our team.

The format of these calls is simple and short where they can either give a presentation or quickly walk the team through their agenda.
