Actions speak louder than words/ The act of one man is more effective than the words that you know
أرى المعنى كالتالي:
إن من تعرفه بأفعاله وسلوكه يمكن أن يؤثر فيك بطريقة أفضل من الكلام الكثيرالذي تعرفه
وهذه المقولة شبيهة بقولهم
فعل رجل في ألف رجل خير من قول ألف رجل لرجل
So, the suggested literal translation to your question is:
The act of one man is far more effective than the words that you know.
The suggested figurative translation is:
Actions speak louder than words/ speech
What you do is more significant than what you say.
إن من تعرفه بأفعاله وسلوكه يمكن أن يؤثر فيك بطريقة أفضل من الكلام الكثيرالذي تعرفه

those whom you know would be more effective that what you yourself know.
It seems to be literal translation, but I believe in such a context, literal translation would serve better

He whom you know might be more influential than what you know
