Buen día. Estoy traduciendo una entrevista al dueño de una empresa. El entrevistador hace esta pregunta:
You're also part of the National Turkey Federation. Now that's the group that gives the president the national turkey every Thanksgiving. And you were telling me a little bit about that earlier. We're up in a couple of a years, right?
Y el entrevistado responde:
Yeah, in about four or five years. We rotate through it. I'm on the executive board. And if everybody ***stays on cue***, I’ll be doing that in about four or five years. I'll be the one representing NTF.
Cualquier ayuda sobre cómo interpretar la frase será bienvenida. ¡Gracias!

"estar de acuerdo" / "si el grupo está de acuerdo"
Interpreto que “stay on cue”, en este contexto, significa "estar de acuerdo", y que "everybody", se refiere al "grupo", no a una circunstancia. En consecuencia, mi propuesta es:
Y si el grupo está de acuerdo, [...].
Y si el grupo está de acuerdo, [...].

Reference:
Stays on cue
I had only heard of "on cue" in reference to acting (for example, crying on cue), but found a reference in a sports context where it may be equivalent to "staying the course".
