Hello everyone,
From page 20 of the pdf-file:
http://www.shadowsgovernment.com/shadows-library/Act Like a ...
So the best place to begin is by making changes in how you do your job, what kinds of relationships you form, and ***how you do what you do*** (figure 1-3).
Figure 1-3 can be seen on page 19 of the pdf-file:
The resume of chapter 1 (on page 27) reads as follows:
- Outsight comes from a “tripod” of sources: new ways of doing your work (your job), new relationships (your network), and ***new ways of connecting to and engaging people*** (yourself).
My question is: Do I understand correctly that in this particulat context the phrase "how you do what you do" really means "new ways of connecting to and engaging people"?
If not, I've to admit that I fail to see any difference between "how you do your job" and "how you do what you do".
Thank you.

Your overall approach/methods to achieve your objectives/HOW you achieve your WHAT and WHY
Another way of expressing it. HOW is literally defining how you do what you do. It’s taking the time to think about your processes and approaches to your work, not just thinking about WHAT you do, WHY you're doing it, but thinking about HOW you do it (including forming relationships so you can inspire and motivate others and delegate responsibility) .

Also, this is actually defined a bit later on pp26/27 of the Pdf where "outsight" (as used by this writer) is explained
"Outsight comes from a “tripod” of sources: new ways of doing your work
(your job), new relationships (your network), and new ways of connecting to
and engaging people (yourself).
✓ Sustainable change in your leadership capacity requires shifts on all three
legs of the tripod."

all three sources
"How you do what you do" is not limited to only new ways of connecting to and engaging people like your wrote above, but all of the aforementioned sources, namely "new ways of doing your work" (your job), "new relationships" (your network) and "new ways of connecting to and engaing people" (yourself).
These three sources comprise the phrase 'ow you do what you do'.

how you bring your own identity to bear on your actions
This refers to the third "leg" of the "tripod". Elsewhere this tripod is defined as "redefine your job, your network, yourself" . So it is about the third of these. The later chapters about authenticity and "working on yourself" explain this part in more detail.
Try stressing the "yous" when reading the phrase aloud!
