No, it doesn't make a difference what kind of work you are doing. At some point your meetings have to result in some kind of action taken. The action is the work. You can have 100 meetings planning an event but if you never actually have the event, have you actually done any work? The work is actually booking the venue, finding the staff for the event, setting up the decor, inviting the guests, selling the tickets, hiring catering, scheduling the talks or speeches, any of the other stuff. Work actually materializes something. Meetings, at best, materialize a plan for how to do the work. Often they don't even do that.
