I found an excellent definition of IT governance in this article “Getting started with IT Governance“:

A holistic, profit-driven approach to IT operations that encompasses organizational structure, decision-making processes, management controls and automation to most effectively align IT efforts with the business of the company at large and manage IT like a business.

In most cases IT governance is just defined as either focussing on project portfolio management and managing IT investments, or as a part of business governance as for example described in the SOX act. The author combines several management subjects under the IT governance umbrella. The author also points out that implementation of ‘IT governance’ can only be achieved in small steps.
