摘要：Context: Agility at the business level requires Information Technology (IT) environment flexible andcustomizable, as well as effective and responsive governance in order to deliver value faster, better, andcheaper to the business. Objective: To understand better this context, our paper seeks to investigate howthe domain of agile governance has evolved, as well as to derive implications for research and practice.Method: We conducted a systematic review about the state of art of the agile governance up to andincluding 2013. Our search strategy identified 1992 studies in 10 databases, of which 167 had the potentialto answer our research questions. Results: We organized the studies into four major groups: softwareengineering, enterprise, manufacturing and multidisciplinary; classifying them into 16 emergingcategories. As a result, the review provides a convergent definition for agile governance, six metaprinciples,and a map of findings organized by topic and classified by relevance and convergence.Conclusion: The found evidence lead us to believe that agile governance is a relatively new, wide andmultidisciplinary area focused on organizational performance and competitiveness that needs to be moreintensively studied. Finally, we made improvements and additions to the methodological approach forsystematic reviews and qualitative studies.
