It would depend on what you are trying to do with a rating scale. The most simplified version would be “meets expectations” or “fails to meet expectations”. That is rarely appealing so I have more often seen the “below,meets, exceeds expectations” used when trying to simplify. If you determine bonuses or other material decisions on ratings, you may want to consider a broader scale for bigger differentiation. If there is no reward or outcome attached to the rating, my advice would be the 3-point scale that differentiates over performers. If you add more than that, you will want to have a system in place that gives your managers clear benchmarks that guide the scale so that it is consistently deployed and you avoid the legal risks of bias, adverse impact and unfair performance management practices.
I've never seen Sets a New Standard, so thanks for exposing me to that. I also like that your sample scale tips toward the positive side. What's wrong with what you've found that you're not getting what you want from the scale? It's clear-cut, at least.
I'm not sure any cut-and-dried scale is going to be really appealing. What I've found most useful is giving lots of comments/written feedback to explain my rating. That's generally most helpful to employees.
