Fused-head construction

The platform Trump is rejoining, however, is different from the one from which he was exiled. And how his team manages those changes could go a long way in determining the success of his efforts for a second term as president.

From Politico.

I see how his team manages those changes as an NP, a fused-head construction, where the "how" is the head of the NP. In other words, I take the "how", here, as the way in which [how (the way in which) his team manages those changes].

I don't see how his team manages those changes as an interrogative content clause in the cited paragraph.

Am I correct?
