Danny Guillory

Chief People Officer
Gametime

Danny Guillory is Chief People Officer at Gametime, a mobile marketplace for last-minute event tickets, where he leads enterprise-wide human capital strategy. He joined Gametime in September 2025 after serving as Chief People Officer at Glassdoor, and earlier held Chief People Officer, VP and Chief Diversity Officer (Dropbox), and Head of Global Diversity & Inclusion (Autodesk) roles across more than 25 years of executive HR leadership. He holds a Juris Doctor from Harvard Law School.

Enabling Generative AI Inside HR Without Losing the Fundamentals

At Glassdoor, Danny led the enablement of generative AI within the People team itself, not just as a tool employees used elsewhere in the business, while also building the company's first dedicated workforce planning function and launching universal and craft competencies. His track record suggests AI adoption in HR works best when paired with, not substituted for, foundational people practices like workforce planning and clear competency frameworks. Earlier in his career, his work on diversity and inclusion at Autodesk and Dropbox is frequently cited by former colleagues for combining a pragmatic, results-oriented approach with genuine humility and approachability as a senior executive.

Topics Danny speaks on

  • Enabling generative AI inside the People function itself
  • Building a workforce planning function from scratch
  • Confident, compliant AI adoption in HR leadership
  • Diversity, equity, and inclusion as a competitive advantage
  • Partnering with the CEO to build executive team cohesion
