This idiom refers to the things that you secretly intend to achieve from a plan or action, although you pretend that you are doing it for another reason.
Holland refused to sign the treaty, fearing that de Gaulle had a hidden agenda. Bernie was a very straighforward guy without any hidden agendas. He just wanted to do a good job, and people in his district liked him. Source: Longman Idioms Dictionary Tim

Everyone at onetime or another has a hidden agenda, sometimes good and sometimes bad but we still continue to do what we have planned so that we achieve that goal.
Such as……. He has a hidden agenda Sophia, so you better be careful because I think he is after you for some reason other then love. Or….. Do you know that the secretary has a hidden agenda Marie so we better keep an eye on her or she will have our jobs. eastcoast
