HTML5 Tweaks for Customizing Google Plus Profile Card / Google+ Badge for Profile
Quite sure there will be some junk Plugin for WordPress in future to add "automatically" or may be have something. But you need no such Plugins or Widgets. Copy pasting only the chunk of code in a Text Widget in WordPress will work fine.
Now comes the point for programatically controlling the things instead of copy pasting the output. The code has two parts - one is the Javascript and one is the HTML code. We need not to do anything with the Javascript part. That is constant. Only you can change the HTML5 part :
<!-- this is the default HTML5 Part -->
<div class="g-person" data-href="https://plus.google.com/{profileId}"></div>
<!-- Example changes -->
<div class="g-person" data-href="https://plus.google.com/{profileId}" layout="portrait" showcoverphoto="false" showtagline="false" width="300"></div>
<!-- This is Javascript Part -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js"></script>
