Task vs object focused IA and navigation

I'm thinking about the best way to structure UIs for enterprise management tools and dashboards. Often, one could either choose a UI structure that is around the tasks of the users, or then one that reflects the dimensions and objects of the data.

I wonder if there are solid mental models, articles, book chapters or empirical evidence on what would be the best approach? Or what type of navigation works best for which tasks?

The task based approach feels to be the one that is easier to map to the mental models of the user. Then again, sometimes on object based could be more intuitive and effective for the users to learn and master.

UX Mastery seems to recommend structuring navigation around objects (nouns), not tasks (verbs): https://blog.prototypr.io/an-alternate-approach-to-menu-systems-for-a-better-ux-5131be448c6f

"As users, we are more inclined to think about objects first, and the tasks centered around these tasks as second."
