- Abstract: Context: Agile Governance Theory (AGT) has emerged as a potential model for
organizational chains of responsibility across business units and teams.
Objective: This study aims to assess how AGT is reflected in practice. Method:
AGT was operationalized down into 16 testable hypotheses. All hypotheses were
tested by arranging eight theoretical scenarios with 118 practitioners from 86
organizations and 19 countries who completed an in-depth explanatory
scenario-based survey. The feedback results were analyzed using Structural
Equation Modeling (SEM) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Results: The
analyses supported key theory components and hypotheses, such as mediation
between agile capabilities and business operations through governance
capabilities. Conclusion: This study supports the theory and suggests that AGT
can assist teams in gaining a better understanding of their organization
governance in an agile context. A better understanding can help remove delays
and misunderstandings that can come about with unclear decision-making
channels, which can jeopardize the fulfillment of the overall strategy.

This paper theoretically answers the key factors that contribute to the generalization gap when the testing environment has distractors.
Our theories indicate that minimizing the representation distance between training and testing environments, which aligns with human intuition, is the most critical for the benefit of reducing the generalization gap.
