A toggle checkbox on PowerBI

One of the requirement for my small PowerBI project is a toggle checkbox. For example, here is 'salesperson'  table

 

KeyEmployeeKeyEmployee

 

When the checkbox is checked, only 'KeyEmployee' will display on the dashboard, otherwise everyone will display. Lets see hows it looks in final solution:

I have successfully make it works as you can see above by using a temporary table and help from DAX:

My question is: Do we have any build-in visualization from Power BI to achieve my requirement? Or any better way for this? 

 

P/S: I've written a blog post for my solution (sorry, this is not in English) based on the data model from Guy in a Cube, please correct me if my solution is a bad solution.
