1. A method, performed by one or more processors, for modeling enterprise data, the method comprising:
accessing one or more data objects from data objects stored in databases of an enterprise system that manages resources of an organization of an enterprise, wherein the databases include a customer relationship management system, a human capital management system, an incentive compensation system and a reports repository system, and wherein each of the data objects is associated with a plurality of different types of enterprise data; selecting, in response to user input at a client graphical user interface of an insight and action graphical user interface software, a subset of one or more icons from a larger set of icons, with each icon representing one of the one or more data objects, each of the one or more data objects corresponding to a person in the enterprise; communicating the selecting between the insight and action graphical user interface software and a data aggregation module via a network, wherein the insight and action graphical user interface software includes a data visualization module, a report generator, an action module, a monitoring module each in communication with a graphical user interface controller; selectively retrieving data objects that are associated with the subset of the one or more icons from at least one of the databases; forwarding the retrieved data objects to the client graphical user interface over the network via the graphical user interface controller; generating user interface display screens displaying the subset of one or more icons using the client graphical user interface and the insight and action graphical user interface software; depicting a login-indicator section, on at least one of the user interface display screens, indicating a name of a logged in user; depicting, on at least one of the user interface display screens, a population filter section with respective population filters for further filtering the subset of one or more icons; depicting, on at least one of the user interface display screens, a time slider bar for viewing positions of the subset of one or more icons at different previous times by dragging a slider associated with the time slider bar; depicting, on at least one of the user interface display screens, a show progress control, for viewing progress of the subset of one or more icons across a grid in time; providing icon flip control, on at least one of the user interface display screens, to view data positioned behind a selected icon; providing a drop-down menu, on at least one of the user interface display screens, with respective options for adding notes, adding goals for a person represented by a selected icon, sending a message to the person represented by the selected icon, showing additional details pertaining to the person represented by the selected icon, and creating a team of people associated with the person represented by the selected icon; providing a zoom control, on at least one of the user interface display screens, for expanding a specific section of at least one of the user interface display screens; providing a navigation box, on at least one of the user interface display screens, for navigating between different user interface display screens, wherein the navigation box includes a map view control, a hierarchy view control, a grid view control, a social network view control, and a results graph view control; in response to a user input signal selecting the map view control from the navigation box to select a first view for the subset of one or more icons, displaying the subset of one or more icons on the client graphical user interface by positioning the subset of one or more icons on the first view with respect to metrics, wherein the displaying of the subset of one or more icons further comprises: incorporating the subset of one or more icons into a user interface visualization via the data visualization module, wherein the user interface visualization acts as a viewing lens into data objects stored in the databases, wherein the viewing lens is selected from a geographical viewing lens with icons representing people positioned on a map according to their respective addresses; in response to a user input signal selecting another option from the navigation box to select a second view for the subset of one or more icons, activating the action module that manipulates the data objects stored in the databases in accordance with the selected option, and transitioning from displaying the first view to displaying the second view while maintaining information and context continuity between the first view and the second view, the second view including an indicator for each icon in the selected subset of one or more icons, positioning the subset of one or more icons on the second view with respect to metrics, the second view including a second viewing lens displaying a different type of enterprise data that corresponds to the hierarchy view control, the grid view control, the social network view control, or the results graph view control, wherein the first view and the second view each depict the same number of icons that represent the same number of data objects; and displaying respective breadcrumb bands on the first view and the second view corresponding with respective user interface display screens, wherein the breadcrumb bands indicate navigation locations among the respective user interface display screens, and wherein a breadcrumb band acts as a menu item upon user selection. |
