Welcome

Welcome to the home page for Karl Wiegers, author and software consultant and trainer. At this site you can get information about the books and articles I've written, the consulting and training services provided through my company, and more than you probably wanted to know about my background and interests.

About Me   At this page you will find a brief biography, with a bit about my childhood as a world traveler, educational background, my transition from organic chemistry into the software development world, my hobbies and causes, and even some songs I've written.

My Books   This page will tell you a little about each of the books I've written, with a convenient link for ordering a copy, of course. I've also provided links to the table of contents for each book, along with a sample chapter or two. Some of the books have useful downloads associated with them, like document templates, checklists, and spreadsheet tools. My newest book, Pearls from Sand: How Small Encounters Lead to Powerful Lessons, is a memoir of life lessons, totally unlike my technical books.

Consulting   Since late 1997, I've devoted my professional career to running my company, Process Impact. This page will tell you all about the products and services available from Process Impact.

My Blogs   I currently have two blogs, where I'm posting new material at least weekly. You're invited to read the posts, add your comments, and contribute your own insights. I'm happy to consider guest posts.

  • Pearls from Sand is the blog that accompanies my newest book, a memoir of life lessons titled Pearls from Sand: How Small Encounters Lead to Powerful Lessons. The posts are generally about additional life lessons that I or others have learned. Please visit PearlsFromSand.com and contribute your own pearls of wisdom for me to post on the blog.
  • The Consulting Tips and Tricks Blog presents many of the useful things I've learned during 14 years as an independent consultant, trainer, and author. Even if you're not a consultant, you'll likely find much useful information here.

Contact Me   It's always great to hear from people who are interested in my work. Here you can find all of my contact information and links to my other web sites.
