You may customise org-columns-modify-value-for-display-function:

(defun yant/org-columns-custom-formatter (column-title value)
  "Format column values for columns with ID-LINK title as proper Org mode id: link."
  (pcase column-title
    ("ID-LINK"
     (format "[[id:%s][%s]]"
	     value
	     (org-with-point-at (org-id-find value 'marker)
               (org-get-heading t t t t))))
    (_ nil)))
(setq org-columns-modify-value-for-display-function #'yant/org-columns-custom-formatter)

Then, you can use the following dblock. Note that I renamed the column
name to "ID-LINK"

#+BEGIN: columnview :id global :match "+project-focus/!+STARTED|+NEXT|+WAITING" :format "%TODO(State) %ITEM(What) %ID(ID-LINK) %TAGS(Tags)"
#+END:

Best,
