Guillén graduated in 1987 from the University of Oviedo in his native Spain with a BA degree in Political Economy and Business Management.

At Yale, he wrote his dissertation under the direction of sociologists Charles Perrow, Paul DiMaggio, and Juan J. Linz, which later became his book, Models of Management (University of Chicago Press, 1994). His professors Jesús M. de Miguel and Alvaro Cuervo were his earliest intellectual mentors. Aside from his advisors, he considers the cultural anthropologist Clifford Geertz and the political economist Albert Hirschman to be his most important intellectual influences, whom he met while a member at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton University.
